Bi Sasquatch<p>Headline: The Trump Administration Has Made 150 Million American Workers Newly Vulnerable to Workplace Discrimination</p><p>Source: Center for American Progress</p><p>From the article: "Essentially, all employees and job seekers, a total of approximately 153 million Americans, benefit from the protections the EEOC provides. The Equal Pay Act—a law requiring equal pay for equal work that the EEOC enforces—covers virtually all employers, while other laws enforced by the EEOC apply to all but the smallest employers. Whether they work in the private sector or for the government, practically all employees and those applying for jobs are protected by the EEOC against illegal employer actions" (Annotations removed
