  • Other Indicia of Animus Against LGBT People by State and Local
    Chapter 14: Other Indicia of Animus Against LGBT People by State and Local Officials, 1980-Present In this chapter, we draw from the 50 state reports to provide a sample of comments made by state legislators, governors, judges, and other state and local policy makers and officials which show animus toward LGBT people. Such statements likely both deter LGBT people from seeking state and local government employment and cause them to be closeted if they are employed by public agencies. In addition, these statements often serve as indicia of why laws extending legal protections to LGBT people are opposed or repealed. As the United States Supreme Court has recognized, irrational discrimination is often signaled by indicators of bias, and bias is unacceptable as a substitute for legitimate governmental interests.1 “[N]egative attitudes or fear, unsubstantiated by factors which are properly cognizable…are not permissible bases” for governmental decision-making.2 This concern has special applicability to widespread and persistent negative attitudes toward gay and transgender minorities. As Justice O‟Connor stated in her concurring opinion in Lawrence v. Texas, 539 U.S. 558, 580-82 (2003): We have consistently held…that some objectives, such as “a bare...desire to harm a politically unpopular group,” are not legitimate state interests. … Moral disapproval of this group [homosexuals], like a bare desire to harm the group, is an interest that is insufficient to satisfy rational basis review under the Equal Protection Clause. 1 Board of Trustees of the University of Alabama v. Garrett, 531 U.S. 356, 367 (2001). 2 Id. (quoting Cleburne v Cleburne Living Center, 473 U.S.

  • Protection, Patriarchy, and Capitalism: the Politics and Theory of Gender-Specific Regulation in the Workplace
    UCLA UCLA Women's Law Journal Title Protection, Patriarchy, and Capitalism: The Politics and Theory of Gender-Specific Regulation in the Workplace Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8vr608rh Journal UCLA Women's Law Journal, 6(2) Author Oren, Laura E. Publication Date 1996 DOI 10.5070/L362017654 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California PROTECTION, PATRIARCHY, AND CAPITALISM: THE POLITICS AND THEORY OF GENDER-SPECIFIC REGULATION IN THE WORKPLACE Laura Oren* INTRODUCTION Even in a common law system, lawyers and legal scholars tend to set their sights on the future rather than the past. This symposium implicitly looks forward to the day that "Institutional Barriers to Women in the Workplace" may be removed. The au- thors included here are developing the legal analysis necessary to arrive at that goal. In shared hope for that future, this article looks to the past. It tells two stories, one about England in the 1830s - 1840s and another about the United States in the 1970s - 1980s. Both are narratives about protection, patriarchy, and capitalism. * Associate Professor of Law, University of Houston Law Center, J.D., Uni- versity of Houston Law Center, 1980; Ph.D. (History), Yale University, 1974. In this article, I have referred to interviews I conducted by telephone with the following participants in the campaign against fetal protection policies: Joan Bertin, Marsha Berzon, Dr. Eula Bingham, Carin Clauss, Odessa Komer, Mary Win O'Brien, and Wendy Williams. I am indebted to them and to the many other inter- viewees who provided their insights and valuable background information.

  • The Marriage of Elizabeth Cady and Henry Brewster Stanton and the Devel
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles A Family Affair: The Marriage of Elizabeth Cady and Henry Brewster Stanton and the Development of Reform Politics A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Linda Christine Frank 2012 © Copyright by Linda Christine Frank 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION A Family Affair: The Marriage of Elizabeth Cady and Henry Brewster Stanton and the Development of Reform Politics by Linda Christine Frank Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Ellen C. DuBois, Chair Although devoted to insuring universal freedom and human rights for more than 60 years, Henry B. Stanton’s historical legacy and his many contributions to antebellum reform have been obscured and even vilified in the shadows of his famous wife, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and his oftentimes tactical opponent within abolition circles, William Lloyd Garrison. Frequently portrayed as the antagonist in his wife’s struggle for women’s rights, as a husband and a father Henry Stanton has become synonymous in the historical discourse with the very oppression his wife devoted her life to ending. Because of this, Elizabeth’s reformism is frequently depicted as having emerged from an imagined unhappy domestic life, rather than from an awareness of social and political inequalities. Elizabeth’s feminism is thus all too frequently explicitly or implicitly viewed as first a private and then a public rebellion. ii Through extensive primary source research, this dissertation seeks to redefine the pivotal moments in the Cady-Stanton marriage to better understand the many reasons, causes, and inspirations that led to Elizabeth Stanton’s leadership of the Seneca Falls Convention in particular and the woman suffrage movement in general.

    Writing in the Margins: Mainstream News Media Representations of Transgenderism∗ Thomas J Billard Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, University of Southern California [email protected] August 29, 2016 Abstract This study examines representations of transgender individuals and identity in main- stream American newspapers in an effort to understand the extent to which the transgender com- munity is legitimized or delegitimized by news media. To do so, 200 articles from 13 of the 25 most circulated daily newspapers in the United States were coded for the presence or absence of Legitimacy Indicators. The study finds that mainstream newspaper coverage of the transgender community is extremely limited. What coverage existed, however, contains a significant amount of delegitimizing language, which it is argued will detrimentally impact both the projected legitimacy of transgender claims in the political arena and public perceptions of the transgender community.

The City employs about 320 staff, down from 400 employees. Ms. Stanton directly supervised 10 department heads. The general fund is $33 million and the total budget is $190 million. The three most important issues facing the City of Lake Worth are: Financial management and solvency: The City lost almost 55% of its taxable property base in three years. The City needs to ensure it can pay for the services it wants; Electric Utility: Seen as a valued asset by Ms. Stanton and the Utility Director, the property was mismanaged for several years. As a quick solution, the City may choose to sell its utility to FPL or a small utility company; and Redevelopment of the beachfront: For many years Lake Worth’s beachfront building was in disrepair and deteriorating.
