Append political protections to the Civil Rights Act of 1964
The following is a proposal to append political protections to citizen of the united states. Over the past eight years starting in the year 2016 to the present. I personally have seen and even been a victim of discrimination based on political view points. below are the key provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
- Outlaws discrimination in public places, including restaurants, hotels, theaters, and other public accommodations
- Requires the desegregation of schools and other public facilities
- Makes employment discrimination illegal, including unequal pay and benefits
- Prohibits unequal application of voter registration requirements
- Extends the Commission on Civil Rights to oversee registration and voting practices
The provision that would be good to append to the Civil Right Act of 1964 is to outlaw discrimination of persons with different political view points. Below are some examples of businesses discriminating against citizens based on different political view points are listed below.
ex.1) Fire Wolf Studio LLC - https://x.com/FireWolfStudio/status/1854447452964712716
“Closes in a few hours!
And we will use this Post to say that we will NOT work with Trump supporters. This fursuit making company is run and operated solely by a Black Trans Man, and we will not work with someone who is okay with me being seen as less than human. Thank you.”
ex.2) Corgilegs Craftes - https://x.com/corgilegs/status/1855036855311646913
“Given Recent Events, I would like to be explicitly clear!
I am trans. Most of the people I know and love are queer, PoC, trans, etc. I firmly believe Donald Trump is a danger to my community.
If you voted for Trump, please exit all of my spaces, you are not welcome here.”
ex.3) Sarahcat Fursuits - https://x.com/SarahcatFursuit/status/1920624334147563946
“A reminder that I do not make fursuits for people who voted for Trump, go somewhere else.”
