Bill to redefine discrimination
By Alex Granados | April 19Two years ago, N.C. Rep. Paul Luebke, D-Durham, proposed legislation that would provide protection from discrimination based on sexual orientation. While the bill got stalled in committee then, Luebke is determined that equal protections will be provided to all state employees by the end of this legislative session. Luebke, along with Larry Womble, D-Forsyth, reintroduced the bill last week to what he hopes is a more favorable group of legislators.
