The discrimination part is interesting It's federal law Under federal employment discrimination law, employers generally cannot discriminate against employees on the basis of race,[1] sex[1][2] (including sexual orientation and gender identity),[3] pregnancy,[4] religion,[1] national origin,[1] disability (physical or mental, including status),[5][6] age (for workers over 40),[7] military service or affiliation,[8] bankruptcy or bad debts,[9] genetic information,[10] and citizenship status (for citizens, permanent residents, temporary residents, refugees, and asylees).[11] Though like monkmith stated, it is extremely difficult to prove. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all.
