If approved, King County Charter Amendment 7 would prohibit discrimination in county employment and contracting based on someone’s status as a family caregiver, member of the military, or veteran who was honorably discharged or discharged solely as a result of sexual orientation or gender identity. These qualities would supplement the county's existing employment anti-discrimination policies that protect sex, race, color, national origin, religious affiliation, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, and age except by minimum age and retirement provisions.
As many in our county are struggling with coronavirus-related unemployment or under-employment, these kinds of anti-discrimination measures are more important than ever.

Young people deserve accurate information to help them make good decisions, to protect themselves, and to protect their futures.
