Editor's Notes
- Prohibit an employer from establishing a quota system or giving preferential treatment to an individual on the basis of sexual orientation. Exempt religious organizations and educational institutions supported or managed by a religious organization which has as its primary purpose the spreading of a particular religion. Legislation specifically states that the bill's protection does not extend to the area of benefits offered to a covered employee's partner and, therefore, does not require an employer to offer domestic partner benefits to employees. Allows for compensatory and punitive damages under the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
- Time limit for filing a charge cannot be extended upon the receipt of each successive paycheck (the “Paycheck Rule”). Current law requires employees to bring claims within 180 days (if the employee’s home state has no equal employment agency) or 300 days (if the employee’s home state has an equal employment agency) of alleged action. Amends Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the ADA, ADEA, and the Rehabilitation Act. Legislation would effectively get rid of the statute of limitations on discrimination claims. The bill would also re-start the time clock when a retiree receives an annuity check from an employer, and would thus keep employers liable to a discrimination claim potentially decades after an alleged act of misconduct. Also expands current law by allowing, not just an “aggrieved person,” but other individuals who were “affected” by an act of pay discrimination, to file claims

- Require the MHP provisions to apply to each benefit package offered by an employer. Define financial requirements as deductibles, coinsurance, co-payments, and other limits paid by the plan participant. Treatment limits include limitations on the frequency of treatment, number of days of coverage, or other limits on the scope of treatment under the plan. Prohibit a health care plan from imposing treatment or financial requirements on mental health benefits if it does not maintain similar limits on medical and surgical benefits. Require the MHP provisions to apply to each benefit package offered by an employer. Define financial requirements as deductibles, coinsurance, co-payments, and other limits paid by the plan participant. Treatment limits include limitations on the frequency of treatment, number of days of coverage, or other limits on the scope of treatment under the plan. Allows the federal law to preempt state laws if state law provides protections that are greater than the MHPA protections. Provides and exemption from the MHPA requirements if a plans costs rise more than 2 percent in the first year and more than 1 percent in each subsequent year.
