Summary
The Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA), the law at the heart of Young v. United Parcel Service, Inc., may have the most untapped potential of any federal law governing sex discrimination. First passed in 1978, the PDA amended Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to prohibit discrimination based on pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. The PDA mattered because it undercut employer policies that excluded women and provided a potent check on pregnancy-based stereotyping.
