fter the sudden withdrawal of a challenge, Mesa s Non-Discrimination Ordinance will go into effect at the end of June.
On March 1, Mesa City Council approved an ordinance âprohibiting discrimination in public accommodations, employment, and housing on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, veteranâs status, marital status, or familial status, with certain exclusions.â
The group United for Mesa seemed to have enough signatures to stop the ordinance and put the issue to voters. But, in a release emailed to news organizations late Friday afternoon, the group stated, United for Mesa will stipulate to a court judgment that will keep a referendum on Mesaâs non-discrimination ordinance off the ballot, citing legal technicalities and the deep pockets of the opposition lobby.
