Class, since the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1964, more employment legislation in the area of equal employment opportunity (EEO) has become the law of the land. Pick one of the following acts and tell us its major provisions.

• Civil Rights Act of 1964

• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

• Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA)

• Pregnancy Discrimination Act

• Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

Do not simply copy and paste information into your post from the EEOC or other websites. Paraphrase and explain the following concepts about the law: who does it protect, from what kind of behavior, and from whom? Why was the law implemented, and do you agree with its necessity? Explain. If you or someone you know has been sued or filed suit using one of these laws, feel free to tell us about it if you want to do so!
