Individual Rights and Responsibilities Section opposes AB 260 - Employment Discrimination Against Certain Felons

Our State Bar's Individual Rights and Responsibilities Section has announced it opposes AB260, a bill

permitting an employer to refuse to employ or to terminate from employment an individual who has been convicted of a sex offense or a violent offense and preempting cities, villages, town, and counties from adopting provisions concerning employment discrimination based on arrest or conviction record that prohibit activity that is allowed under the state fair employment law.
