Court upholds decision promoting gay rights
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court refused to overturn Gov. Milton Shapp's 1975 executive order promoting gay rights, affirming a lower court ruling that the governor acted within his powers. The decision drew criticism from state police, prison guards, and some lawmakers, who proposed bans on homosexuals holding state jobs. The suit was brought by Richard Robinson, who claimed Shapp overstepped authority. The ruling emphasizes the governor's prerogative to pursue anti discriminatory policy.
