Rights Commission Still Negotiating With Resorts

The Nevada Equal Rights Commission continues talks with major Las Vegas hotels over EEOC discrimination charges. The Sahara MGM Caesars Palace and Summa Corp have engaged in conciliation talks, with a counterproposal expected next week. ERC aims for an enforceable agreement protecting against sex race and national origin bias. The commission also unveiled five 1977 legislative proposals to broaden power to enforce equal rights, including remedies, court compliance, longer filing windows, and temporary restraints. A separate hearing on Robert Hall's firing at MGM Grand concluded with witnesses and a decision anticipated in about two months.
