Josh Shapiro Signs 'Hair Discrimination' Ban in Pennsylvania

Published | Video Starts at 06:23

It is unacceptable to me that Pennsylvanians have to feel like they choose between who they really are and a job maybe that they really want to pursue. That is not okay. But With the Crown Act, I hope more Pennsylvanians know that here in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, their government has got their backs. Now, if they endure discrimination based on who they are, what they look like, or how they wear their hair, they will be fully protected under the non discrimination laws here in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. (06:23–06:31)

CLAIM

Asserts that the Crown Act will assure Pennsylvanians that their government supports them against discrimination.
