Marlean Ames, a 20-year employee at the Ohio Department of Youth Services, claimed that the promotion and the job she previously held were both given to LGBTQ people.Ames had previously lost her case in trial court and the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals.In siding with Ames, the court unanimously struck down a standard that had previously required individuals identifying as part of a majority group—such as being white, male, or heterosexual—to face a higher bar in proving discrimination.The ruling will affect cases in 20 states and the District of Columbia.
