    The LGBTQIAPK group has filed a suit against a Christian Mental Health Clinic in Florida for not providing gender-neutral bathroom facilities. The legal question is whether the clinic violated any rights. The key laws are Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination in public accommodations, and the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment. For the plaintiff to win, they must prove the clinic is a public accommodation or receives federal funds, and that lack of gender-neutral facilities amounts to discrimination. However, the conclusion is that the plaintiff cannot bring a successful claim, as the clinic is private and accepts all clients regardless of attributes.

    GEA2 Global Citizens Writing Assignment

    Issue

    The LGBTQIAPK group has filed a suit against Christian Mental Health Clinic in Florida for the

    act of differentiating bathrooms based on gender at biological birth and is demanding that the

    clinic’s bathing and toilet facilities offer gender-neutral options. The legal question, in this case,

    is: has the Christian Mental Health Clinic in Florida violated any rights by not providing gender-

    neutral accommodations for toilets and bathing facilities?

    Rule

    The rule of law that applies to this case is Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which

    provides “relief against discrimination in public accommodations” and the overall elimination of

    discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. Also, the Equal Protection

    clause of the 14th amendment applies to this case as well as it states that a state cannot deny any

    person the equal protection of the laws.

    Analysis

    First, the plaintiff must prove that Christian Mental Health Clinic in Florida is a public

    accommodation and/or is federally funded. Next, the plaintiff must establish that due to the lack

    of gender-neutral bathing and toilet facilities, the defendant has discriminated against its clients

    on a basis of race, color, religion, sex, and national origin.

    Conclusion

    In conclusion, the plaintiff cannot bring a successful claim against Christian Mental Health

    Clinic. The plaintiff has not met all the requirements to establish that the defendant has violated

    Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The plaintiff cannot prove that the Christian Mental

    Health Clinic is a public accommodation since the clinic is a private charitable enterprise.

    Moreover, because the clinic accepts victims of all races, religions, and genders, the plaintiff

    cannot prove that the defendant has violated any terms per Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of

    1964. It is reasonable for the ACLU to side with the defendant in this case.
