A former director of the Democratic Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, who was fired by President Donald Trump, is suing the presidency, alleging that her dismissal was unconstitutional.
Days into his next presidency, Trump fired Charlotte Burrows and Jocelyn Samuels, the claimant of the petition. According to Samuels ‘ attorneys in the lawsuit, her dismissal “has substantial and devastating consequences for the job of the Commission, the protection of the world’s anti-discrimination laws, and the rights and interests of both workers and employers.”
The petition continues,” Defendant Trump’s work to halt the EEOC are consistent with and support his Administration’s efforts to turn back the time on years of established law protecting workers and career candidates from discrimination,” according to the lawsuit.
The EEOC was established as a result of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and it is responsible for shielding workers and career candidates from discrimination based on race, gender, religion, and national nature.
The EEOC was left with only two members because Simons and Burrows were fired, leaving them without the three-person consensus required to make decisions.
The President may take these results, but his actions to stop the EEOC are against the law and dangerous to the workforce in America, according to the lawsuit.
In 2020, Trump initially appoints Ellis, and next a year later, Joe Biden, the then-president, appoints Simons once more for a name that will run until 2026.

The president has the option to appoint a associate annually, and the EEOC typically consists of five people. A political party can have no more than three people.  ,
Samuels ‘ dismissal is a continuation of Trump’s and the Department of Government Efficiency’s strategy to reduce national employment. Trump has also been sued by the Federal Trade Commission and the National Labor Relations Board for his abortions.
