"Everyone pays taxes for these programs."Not if "everyone" isn't working. And if they want "protection" by FORCING an employer to hire them, I don't think that's right. Supposing someone FORCED you to WORK & you didn't need or want to work? Would that be fair?

I still haven't seen anything but the headline that says anyone will be forced to hire anyone. The only thing I read was that one could not be fired or evicted because of it.
Employers should have the right to hire whoever, and hopefully they will hire the best qualified regardless of dress, but they should not be able to tell someone already employed what they can or cannot wear on or off the job, unless it is a condition of employment such as where a uniform is called for or where safety is a concern.
My guess is, and I don't know this with certainty, is the protections are probably more directed at employers and renters who choose to fire or evict someone for what they wear behind closed doors (in the home) after bing told by someone rather than what is worn to work or in public.
