Hilliard City Council could introduce legislation March 8 that is intended to revise city code to extend protection for LGBTQ residents from discrimination in employment, housing and public accommodations, according to council member Andy Teater.
“This ordinance is necessary because it expands important civil rights to a segment of our community that currently does not have those protections,” Teater said. “There is some federal protection currently in effect, but those are a confusing mix of legislation, executive orders and case law.
"This ordinance will protect the LGBTQ residents of Hilliard from discrimination in employment, housing and public accommodations."
