Anticipate/expect that college graduates who are the aforesaid will ever-increasingly leave Illinois. Anticipate/expect that soon, if not already, only those who are the following will be hired/retained/promoted in Illinois: liberal, Democrat, RINO, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, unmarried, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time.)
https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/recent-changes-to-illinois-employment-7119691/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 2. Protecting Employees Making Reproductive Health Decisions. Doubling down on protections for reproductive freedom, Illinois added a new category to its list of protected groups under the IHRA. Illinois already has a large set of protected groups. Besides the federally protected groups, which include race, color, sex, age, religion, national origin and mental and physical disability, Illinois also protects employees based on their ancestry, sexual orientation, including gender-related identification, pregnancy, military status, unfavorable military discharge, order of protection status, marital status, citizenship status, work authorization status, language, conviction record and arrest records. Starting on January 1, 2025, Illinois will also prohibit discrimination against employees based on their “reproductive health decisions,” including the use of contraception, fertility or serialization care, assisted reproductive technologies, miscarriage management care, healthcare related to the continuation or termination or pregnancy or prenatal, intranasal or postnatal care. 3. Protecting Employees with Family Responsibilities. Illinois also amended the IHRA (effective January 1, 2025) to prohibit discrimination, harassment or retaliation against employees based on their “family responsibilities” or providing “personal care” to a “family member.” “Personal care” includes an employee providing transportation to or attending a covered family member’s medical appointment or even staying home from work to care for a sick child or parent. This amendment expressly does not require employers to accommodate an employee’s request for time, etc. to provide this personal care or require employers to modify their existing policies and rules. It simply restricts employers from treating these employees differently because of their family responsibilities to provide personal care to family members.)

I doubt very much that I would have gotten the jobs and promotions that I got.

GAO
— IRS Workforce: Actions Needed to Address Barriers to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS for almost 9 years 1971-1980, they used Affirmative Action and DEI big time to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their Republican employees. All my coworkers who they promoted over me a) were Democrats who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, and/or had no professional certification like the one I had and/or b) were Democrats who were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran. I earned an MBA in 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. Because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, my Democrat IRS superiors not only did not promote me after 1974, they a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and c) disallowed my education deductions in 1978.)

INSIDE HIGHER EDUCATION
— Democrats ever-increasingly shout that minorities have to be given preference forever to succeed. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors gave my Black subordinate preference big time. They forced me to retire and gave him my job and my preferred corner office. 26 years earlier, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

I spend my junior and senior years and the summer in between washing dishes. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of 1966 class. My ACT score was only 24.)

FULCRUM
— My critics/opponents attribute all their successes to meritocracy, but they attribute all my successes my benefitting from discrimination against those who share their demographics. Their demographics include liberal/moderate, Democrat, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQ, unmarried, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, I stress that neither or my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents whose parents have/had way more money than mine did.
