The government plans to extend civil rights to age discrimination victims under a proposed rule in the Federal Register. Recipients of federal financial aid would have up to two years to justify or drop age distinctions or lose funding. The rule targets unfair practices like denying literacy training to those over 40 or limiting home health care by age in various states. It follows protections for blacks, women, and the handicapped.
