Resolution
To End Harassment and
Discrimination in the Workplace by Amending
Section 12940(J) of the California Government
Code
Whereas, on the job harassment and
discrimination against women and minorities
continues to plague California workers; and
Whereas, specific reasonable
steps to end employer discretionary practices of
employee discrimination and harassment need to
be outlined as an amendment to California
Government Code; and
Whereas, the amendment
reinforces California State Policy which
addresses employee complaints of harassment
and/or discrimination and provides remedy for
relief; and
Whereas, AB 1617 failed to
pass in the California legislature due to
opposition from employers organizations;
Therefore, be it resolved that
California LULAC supports the adoption of an
amendment to California Government Code via the
California LULAC Legislative Committee.
SUBMITTED BY CONTRA COSTA
COUNCIL # 3071. Carlos Torres. President
