The Board of Managers approved removing board policy DAB(LOCAL), which addressed genetic nondiscrimination in employment, on its second and final reading.

What it means for you

This policy deletion affects HISD as an employer; the local policy on genetic nondiscrimination is being removed, though federal law may still apply independently.

Outcome

Adopted as part of the board's consent agenda, not by individual vote: "On motion by board member Colón, with a second by board member Gore, the board voted to approve the items on the consent agenda."
