Washington DC<\/i><\/b> \u2013 Siguiendo la decisi\u00f3n de la Corte Suprema de EE. decisi\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica<\/a> en Bostock contra el condado de Clayton, Georgia.<\/i>, que sostuvo que el T\u00edtulo VII de la Ley de Derechos Civiles de 1964 protege a los trabajadores LGBTQ de la discriminaci\u00f3n, los senadores estadounidenses Ron Wyden y Jeff Merkley de Oreg\u00f3n se unieron a sus colegas para exigir que el Departamento de Justicia (DOJ) revierta su posici\u00f3n anti-LGBTQ que la ley federal hace no proteger a los trabajadores transg\u00e9nero.<\/p>\n

En una carta al fiscal general William Barr, los senadores pidieron al Departamento de Justicia que rescindiera de inmediato un memorando de 2017 emitido por el exfiscal general Jeff Sessions que articula la actual postura anti-transg\u00e9nero del Departamento de Justicia. <\/p>\n

\n

\u201cLe instamos encarecidamente a rescindir un memorando del Departamento de Justicia de EE. UU. de 2017 en el que el exfiscal general Jeff Sessions orden\u00f3 al Departamento de Justicia que adoptara la posici\u00f3n de que los trabajadores transg\u00e9nero no est\u00e1n protegidos contra la discriminaci\u00f3n en el lugar de trabajo en virtud del T\u00edtulo VII de la Ley de Derechos Civiles de 1964\u201d.<\/b> Los senadores escribieron que la decisi\u00f3n de la Corte Suprema \u201cobliga al Departamento de Justicia a rescindir el memorando de sesiones\u201d, <\/b>cual \u201cinterpreta err\u00f3neamente la ley, representa una amenaza continua para el bienestar de los trabajadores transg\u00e9nero e invita a la responsabilidad de los empleadores que err\u00f3neamente conf\u00edan en ella.<\/b><\/p>\n

Los senadores continuaron, \u201cA la luz de la decisi\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica de Bostock, no puede quedar ninguna justificaci\u00f3n para mantener una pol\u00edtica de cumplimiento que contradice rotundamente el precedente de la Corte Suprema. En consecuencia, le pedimos que rescinda el memorando de Sessions de inmediato\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
