The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has begun closing disparate impact discrimination cases following an executive order from President Donald Trump that directs federal agencies to deprioritize that legal theory. The shift, which legal experts say conflicts with long-standing precedent under Title VII, has left workers like former Amazon delivery driver Leah Cross without the usual federal backing for claims that facially neutral policies have discriminatory effects.
Tesla Inc. and the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission have agreed to private mediation to resolve a 2023 lawsuit alleging racial harassment against Black workers at Tesla's Fremont, California, plant. The parties expect mediation to begin in March or April. If unsuccessful, they will propose next steps to the court by June 17, 2026.
