EEOC gains power to sue employers in discrimination cases
Area legislators back a measure giving the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission power to bring civil suits in federal district courts. The bill expands coverage to firms with over 15 employees, state and local government workers, and personnel at educational institutions. The House approved related measures on debt limits and marine mammal protection, while a transportation exhibit funding and rapid appropriations also passed.
