Sen. Todd Weiler (R)

SB 59 (Antidiscrimination Act Revisions)

Libertas Institute opposes this bill.

This bill would force employers to provide accommodations for employees related to pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding.

Utah's Constitution states that "a free market system shall govern trade and commerce in this state." As this bill would force employers to accommodate activity they otherwise might prefer not to, it violates the free market and must therefore be opposed.
