[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, it IS discrimination. Under federal law. 
So now women have to birth babies they don’t want, AND lose employment opportunities, promotions, pay raises they DO want. Man.[/quote]
Yep. Women aren’t people in the GOP. This is what they want, they want women to be reliant on men and back in the home. [/quote]

This happened in California.

Not sure the right answer because the employer likely would have gotten sued as well if something happened to her or the baby doing normal duties.[/quote]

This was decided back in the early 80s with regard to women working in occupations exposing them to chemicals. They would be required to show they were incapable of becoming pregnant. SCOTUS said it was their decision whether to work in hazardous occupations whether potentially or actually pregnant. Still in the 1990s my sister applied for a job at a Job Service event for a company that did industrial painting and they asked her flat out about her fertility and birth control.

No, they would not be liable an officer was pregnant and wanted to be on regular duty as far as I can see. [/quote]
