Pregnancy discrimination in Chino distribution centers remains a serious issue despite clear protections under California FEHA and federal law. Employers must provide reasonable accommodations and cannot retaliate against pregnant workers.

If you are facing denied accommodations or unfair treatment, documenting every detail can make the difference in a legal claim.

The investigation is the first major litigation announced by the commission under Andrea Lucas, its chair, who has made DEI programs a target since taking the role last year.

Workplace rights agency scraps anti-harassment guidance, citing Trump's orders

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has voted to rescind its guidance on workplace harassment. It marks another significant shift in civil rights enforcement under President Donald Trump's second administration. The Republican majority cited Trump’s executive order issued last year — in which he decreed there are two immutable sexes — as one of the reasons for revoking the guidance, which includes language on how to protect transgender workers. Democratic commissioner Kalpana Kotagal opposed the decision, arguing it makes workers more vulnerable. Critics, including former officials and workers' groups, have also voiced strong opposition. They argue the move deprives employers of a clear blueprint for maintaining a harassment-free workplace.

Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Rescinds Workplace Harassment Guidance – The USA Potato

Update. Yesterday #UPenn filed a 163-page brief in federal court condemning the #Trump admin demand for a list of #Jews at the institution as “extraordinary and unconstitutional".
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/us/university-of-pennsylvania-trump-jewish-staff.html

"The #EEOC insists that Penn produce this information without the consent — and indeed, over the objections — of the employees impacted while entirely disregarding the frightening and well-documented history of governmental entities that undertook efforts to identify and assemble information regarding persons of Jewish ancestry. The government’s demand implicates Penn’s substantial interest in protecting its employees’ privacy, safety and First Amendment rights."

Head of workplace rights agency urges white men to report discrimination

The head of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has urged white men to report workplace discrimination based on race or sex. Andrea Lucas, a critic of DEI initiatives, posted on social media Wednesday, encouraging affected individuals to contact the agency. Her post followed Vice President JD Vance's criticism of DEI. Critics argue Lucas misunderstands DEI, which aims to create fairness for all, including white men. Former EEOC Chair Jenny Yang calls Lucas' focus on white men "problematic." Lucas has prioritized addressing DEI-related discrimination since becoming acting chair in January.
