Quiver AI Summary
Scott criticizes EEOC action: Rep. Robert C. “Bobby” Scott said the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s decision to rescind a 1979 affirmative action guidance rule for employers was “another step” in what he described as a campaign to weaken civil rights protections for workers.
Rule and legal context: Scott said employers remain bound by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and noted that Supreme Court decisions on private-sector affirmative action, including United Steelworkers v. Weber and Johnson v. Transportation Agency, have not been overturned.
Broader background: The statement also said recent EEOC actions, under Chair Andrea Lucas and after changes to the commission’s membership, have raised concerns for Scott about the agency’s role in addressing workplace discrimination.
