Same sex harassment ruled illegal by court
The Supreme Court ruled that a federal anti harassment law can apply to same sex harassment, granting a Louisiana man a federal remedy for harassment by male coworkers on a Gulf oil rig. The decision requires proof of gender based discrimination and hostility, not mere offensive conduct, and notes no ruling on sexual orientation bias.

Senate backs 0.08 drunk driving standard measure
The Senate approved a measure endorsed by President Clinton to set a national 0.08 percent blood alcohol limit. States failing to adopt the standard by October 2001 would lose 5 percent of highway funds, rising to 10 percent later. The vote was 62 to 32, with supporters arguing for stricter penalties and opponents cautioning against federal overreach. The measure could also reach the House later this month.
