Lambda Legal Issues Q&A on Historic New LGBT Rights Law in Illinois

 

  • I heard the state of Illinois has passed an LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) rights bill. What does it do?
  • When does the new law take effect?
  • Who is protected?
  • In what settings is discrimination prohibited?
  • Are there new exemptions specific to sexual orientation and gender identity?
  • What can I do if I think I’ve been discriminated against based on sexual orientation or gender identity?
  • If there is a local law that also prohibits sexual-orientation or gender-identity discrimination, what should I do?
  • Who do I have to thank for the new law?
