NET News: Majority Of Nebraskans Support LGBT Non-Discrimination Workplace

April 28, 2019

An annual survey conducted by researchers at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln added two questions for those surveyed this year. The two questions focused on potential work place non-discrimination laws protecting the LGBT community.

This comes on the heels of LB 627 in the Nebraska Unicameral which failed in early March. Recently the Supreme Court of the United States decided it will take up a pair of cases this fall which will look into how existing federal Civil Rights laws which bans employment-related sex discrimination also bans discriminating against individuals based on gender identity.

The survey is officially called the Nebraska Annual Social Indicators Survey (NASIS). Brandon McDermott sat down with two researchers who had a big hand in the survey, Emily Kazyak and Kelsy Burke, to discuss the findings.
