The Coalition For Change, Inc. Presents Virtual Panel on the Elijah Cummings Federal Employee Antidiscrimination Act at Upcoming Whistleblower Summit and Film Festival

WASHINGTON, July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Earlier today, the Coalition For Change, Inc. (C4C) released statements expressing the group's excitement to present a virtual panel entitled: Addressing Discrimination in the Federal Workplace. The panel will convene at noon on July 27, 2021 as a part of the 9th Annual Whistleblower Summit and Film Festival.

During the Summit, panelists Tanya Ward Jordan, the C4C's President, and Paulette Taylor, the C4C's Civil Rights Chair, will discuss the background, purpose, and requirements of the Elijah Cummings Federal Employee Antidiscrimination Act that became law earlier this year. Notably, the C4C panelists will discuss transparency and accountability requirements the late Representative Elijah Cummings introduced "to ensure that all federal workplaces meet the standards of a model EEO program."

"We look forward to discussing the equal employment opportunity reforms the C4C presented to Representative Cummings that he introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives before his passing," said Paulette Taylor, a disabled veteran, and the C4C's Civil Rights Chair.

"The Coalition For Change, Inc. ( C4C) is honored to share with the public a historic law that is a part of Congressman Elijah Cummings' legacy of addressing discrimination and strengthening protections for federal workers. Throughout his stellar career, he championed the cause of federal whistleblowers, who serve to uphold the public trust," said Tanya Ward Jordan, President of the C4C.

During the Whistleblower Summit and Film Festival, Joyce E. Megginson, the C4C's Public Relations Officer, will serve as the C4C's panel moderator. She will facilitate the discussion on the Elijah Cummings Federal Employee Antidiscrimination Act and the vital need for the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to use its enforcement authority to deter unlawful employment discrimination in the federal workplace. https://filmfestivalflix.com/festival/wsff/film/addressing-discrimination-in-the-federal-workplace/
