Protecting older workers sounds great—if it balances fairness without tying employers’ hands into knots.

A motivating factor standard might help claims, but only if the courts don’t get stuck deciphering legal spaghetti.

This bill isn’t just a band-aid; it’s a spotlight on fairness for workers who’ve earned their stripes, not their pink slips.

A clearer legal standard is a good start, but let’s see if this actually stops workplace bias or just adds more paperwork.

Finally, a bill that says ageism at work is out of style—because discrimination never goes out of fashion.

When your age is a factor, not a feature, it’s time we level the legal playing field—and this bill steps up to the challenge.

This bill sounds like protecting workers, but it’s just another way to punish employers for making tough decisions.
