Hard work, determination, fairness, earning a living, providing for your family, and taking pride in a job well done–these are the Kentucky values that drive our workforce and help our commonwealth thrive.
As a coalition of some of Kentucky’s leading employers, home-grown corporations, and small, locally owned businesses, we believe that our policies should reflect these values. It’s why our companies have adopted LGBT-inclusive non-discrimination policies to ensure our workplaces are welcoming to all our employees and their families.
It’s time Kentucky’s Civil Rights Act reflected these values. A Statewide Fairness Law would simply update the Kentucky Civil Rights Act to add sexual orientation and gender identity to discrimination protections in employment, housing, and public accommodations. It’s the right thing to do, and it’s good for Kentucky business.
