Two of Georgia’s six largest cities stand poised to adopt sweeping LGBTQ-inclusive nondiscrimination ordinances, bringing protections to some 300,000 more residents.
But a similar effort in the state’s second-largest city stalled amid concerns over how to enforce the policy. Such policies are in place across Georgia in 12 municipalities, with 11 passing in the last three years.
The policies ban discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, race, religion and several other factors in private employment, housing and public accommodations. The complaint process, fines and revocation of business licenses vary by ordinance. Several also call for tracking hate crimes.
