As a commissioner, Andrea Lucas voted against the EEOC's 2024 harassment guidance.
She found fault with the section that says that repeatedly calling somebody by a name or pronoun they no longer use or denying someone access to a bathroom are forms of harassment and therefore illegal discrimination.
Still, it's not clear why Lucas has called a vote to rescind the entire guidance, nearly 200 pages long, which also addresses harassment based on race, sex, and age, among other protected characteristics.
Craig Lean is with the employment law firm K&L Gates.
He says it shouldn't be a mystery how to comply with the law.
