Talk:Employment discrimination law in the United States

California
Do we want to go the route of having every state's employment discrimination laws summarised in this article? The other option, if we're interested in all states and not just California, is to make it a separate list article... keep the summary, but put the individual states somewhere else. What I don't think we need is details on California and nowhere else - no matter how much findlaw likes California ;) Thoughts? --Alynna 04:20, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Maryland
49b sections 14-16 were repealed October 1, 2009 according to the current codes as hosted on LexisNexis. Is there is another section specifying the protections in Maryland? --Izno (talk) 17:40, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Move to a new title?
The article covers employment discrimination laws at the federal and state. These are a multitude of state laws, as many as there are states. Seems a more accurate name with repalce "law" with "laws". Would had moved the article myself already but wanted some input from contributing editors first, in case I was missing something. The right name would "Employment discrimination laws in the United States" (note the "s" in "laws"). If someone seconds me and there's no objection, go ahead and move it. Otherwise I'll try to be back after a few days and proceed after reading any comments left - if any. Mercy11 (talk) 22:04, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
 * The article is complicated and unwieldy.
 * I suggest a title change to "Discrimination law in the United States Federal government". The top level category is "Discrimination law", a second tier is "Discrimination law in the United States" which includes state and other non-federal law, and finally this article which is just federal law. This pattern allows uniformity if anyone wants to change name "United States" for other countries.
 * The state-level law is messy and much less applicable than federal law, so I say kick all that to another article. Also, I could be mistaken, but I think it would be better to group all federal discrimination law together, and not just employment discrimination. I think most discrimination law is about employment, but for example, access to school programs seems to be a major issue in this discourse.
 * I was looking at all this because at my university employer, I am asked to be aware of all these laws.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)  18:51, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
