Abstract
  • The primary goal of this study is to illuminate the voices of LGBTQ+ individuals in Oregon and Texas who were victims of workplace discrimination due to their LGBTQ+ status in order to highlight the necessity of LGBTQ+ inclusive employment discrimination legislation. This study used qualitative research methods to gather data from existing news articles, interviews, blogs, court testimonials, narratives, and magazine articles that contain direct quotes from LGBTQ+ individuals living in both Texas and Oregon who have experience with being out about their LGBTQ+ status in their workplaces. The findings of this study were evaluated based on categories that define the types of discrimination these individuals faced and the influence it had on their lives both in and out of work. This analysis and its findings add to the collection of literature that advocates for further protections for the LGBTQ+ community in not only employment discrimination but all aspects of their lives. The overall findings of this study show that many LGBTQ+ individuals still experience workplace discrimination despite the various forms of legal protections that are in place and should prevent this from happening.
