It’s Okay for DC Restaurants to Turn Away Proud Boys

Donald Trump’s supporters, including fringe groups like the Proud Boys, are expected to flood DC on Jan. 6 to protest the election results. Mayor Muriel Bowser has urged District residents to avoid confrontation and stay away from the rallies. But what if Proud Boys show up at local restaurants or other businesses? Do they have the right to turn them away?
The short answer: yes.
The DC Human Rights Act prevents businesses from discriminating against people for their political affiliation (as well as gender, race, religion, etc). But fringe ideological groups are not political affiliations, says Veritas Law attorney Scott Rome. So while restaurants can’t turn away customers for being Republicans or, say, wearing a MAGA hat, they’d be within their rights to deny service to someone sporting Proud Boys gear or other white nationalist or Nazi paraphernalia.
