The foundation of New Orleans is our residents, our workforce, our neighborhoods, and our culture.
New Orleans is a diverse gumbo of people from every color, ability, sexuality, and background with rich stories to tell. This culture is something the city should be able to protect so everyone who calls our city home feels welcome.
Unfortunately, many residents, particularly in the service industry, have shared stories about how discrimination has affected their daily lives. Without administrative processes, litigation is the only option. Without access to legal counsel, even litigation is not likely to succeed.
The election on November 16th calls on the voters to create a Human Rights Commission in the city charter in order to safeguard residents from discrimination and strengthen the City’s human rights laws.
Human rights commissions often investigate and resolve discrimination complaints before they get to court, providing businesses and employers the chance to address issues and receive training. Yes on the Human Rights Commission means protecting all our people from discrimination, and helping our people in the service industry have a voice and be respected.
When you go vote for John Bel Edwards for Governor on November 16th, vote YES for the Human Rights Commission amendment and the other three ballot initiatives ([link removed]) on the #BallotofYes for our #fairshare.
