💨 Abstract

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission seeks to terminate Judge Karen Ortiz. Ortiz has criticized the agency's compliance with President Trump's executive order defining sex as binary, calling the acting chair "unfit" and for publicly resisting these changes. The EEOC dropped several transgender discrimination cases and reprioritized new ones, and Ortiz was put on leave and may be fired for "unprofessional" conduct. Ortiz plans to fight the termination, arguing her actions were warranted to uphold ethical standards.
