Supreme Court Revives Straight Woman’s Job-Bias Lawsuit

The US Supreme Court revived a job-bias lawsuit by a woman who says she suffered so-called reverse discrimination because she’s straight, in a ruling that makes it easier to bring similar cases to trial in parts of the country.

The justices unanimously said a federal appeals court was wrong to require workers in majority groups — including White people, men and heterosexuals — to meet a more difficult test than others that have historically faced discrimination.
