Upcoming Panel on Gender Identity and Workplace Protections with Former EEOC General Counsel

An upcoming ABA Employment Rights and Responsibilities Midwinter Meeting in Nashville will feature a panel on “Bostock, Executive Orders and the Evolving Framework for Gender Identity Discrimination.” The discussion, moderated by Meta’s Nicole Groves Bridgeforth, includes former EEOC General Counsel Karla Gilbride, NY Attorney General’s Office’s Sandra Pullman, and attorney Tess Shelton. The panel will assess how the Supreme Court’s Bostock ruling intersects with recent 2025 executive orders limiting gender recognition to male and female, and the EEOC’s rescission of its harassment guidance. Attendees will also explore state-level responses and employer compliance challenges.
