    In a groundbreaking 8-3 decision, the full Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation violates federal civil rights law.

Listen in as Senior Counsel Greg Nevins and Former Chief Strategy Officer and Legal Director Sharon McGowan discuss the years long process to get to this case.
