Supreme Court Lets Stand Ruling on White Employee Suits
The Supreme Court refused to review a Nashville company’s appeal on civil rights suits, confirming a lower court ruling that white employees may sue when blacks are allegedly discriminated against. The action binds the Ohio Michigan Kentucky Tennessee circuit for now, with similar California rulings already in effect. The court also addressed tribes’ authority, state tanker sizes, Pennsylvania abortion law, and FOI disclosure limits while dodging broader employment rights questions. Cecile Wade, a white plaintiff, had alleged sex discrimination and fired plans to sue under the Civil Rights Act.

Gerard told a House subcommittee the 1976 Tax Reform Act unintentionally prevents address data flow. Defense officials seek repeal to strengthen the reserve as the pool falls from 1.5 million in 1972 to 365,000.
