Bill > HB2948

This bill amends the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act to further prohibit discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodations based on sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. The bill expands the definitions of "employer" and "unlawful discriminatory practices" to include these new protected classes. It also provides protections for the exercise of religious beliefs and the right to reasonable dress and grooming standards consistent with an employee's gender identity or expression. The bill aims to promote equal opportunity, economic growth, and a welcoming environment for all individuals in the Commonwealth.
