Unemployed worker joins Sen. Sherrod Brown to expose jobless discrimination, support legislation

Selena Forte, an unemployed bus driver and former police dispatcher from Cleveland, joined Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown at a news conference yesterday to expose discriminatory hiring practices that exclude unemployed job-seekers from consideration for employment. One of three lead Senate co-sponsors of the Fair Employment Opportunity Act, which would ban such practices, Sen. Brown urged swift passage of the legislation.

I hope more people come forward to expose this rampant discrimination that employers are using against the Unemployed in their hiring practices. We need this Law enacted and passed !!!
