The U.S. Supreme Court filed a claim Thursday for people of most backgrounds, such as white people or blunt individuals, alleging “reverse discrimination” in the workplace, which made the case easier for a Ohio woman who claimed she was not promoted at a state agency because she was heterosexual.
The judges filed a lower court ruling in a 9-0 ruling, dismissing plaintiff Marlean Ames’ civil rights lawsuit against his employer, Ohio Department of Youth Services.
The case was sent back to the lower court.
Ames argued that she was denied promotion within the Ohio Youth Services Department because of heterosexuality. Instead, a lesbian was hired for the job, and Ames was eventually lowered by a lower salary, with the gay man playing her former role.
Some judges asked those in so-called reverse discrimination cases to prove that employers have a history of discriminating against the majority. When the case appeared before the U.S. Court of Appeals, the judge initially rejected Ames’ claim, saying she needed to show evidence that people in the minority had made discriminatory decisions. Those responsible for hiring and downgrading AMEs are also very straightforward.
However, the Supreme Court is willing to test this reasoning and is eager to reconsider the actual meaning of "reverse discrimination."
Amid the widespread attacks of the federal government in the Trump administration against diversity, fairness and inclusion policies or DEI in American society, the case was caused by widespread attacks by the federal government, which in recent years has become a powerful flashpoint for conservatives in American society.
After the Supreme Court ruled affirmative action on unconstitutional actions in higher education in 2023, conservative groups that advocated the ruling turned their attention to the workplace, vowing to announce the ultimate diversity measures set by employers. Over the past two years, dozens of cases aimed at demolishing the workplace DEI policy have flooded courts across the country.
At the beginning of the second term, Donald Trump banned Dei within the federal government, fired hundreds of employees who believed they had DEI roles in various departments and institutions and cut back on major programs to promote diversity. The government is also targeting universities to develop a DEI program to cut federal funding.
