The U.S. Justice Department on Wednesday urged the federal appeals court in Manhattan to reject a lawsuit by a former skydiving instructor who claimed he was fired for being gay. Rights groups argue workers should be protected by existing federal law against gender bias by employers. The Justice Department doesn’t agree. It essentially argues that laws against workplace gender bias don’t apply to the LGBT community because companies that fire workers over their sexual orientation will presumably do so whether they are male or female.
