Case: Discrimination/Hiring (D.D.C.)

A District of Columbia federal court partially denied the Architect of the Capitol’s motion to dismiss an age discrimination claim under the Congressional Accountability Act and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of a 56-year-old writer-editor who alleged that she wasn’t selected for another internal position due to her age, finding that she was rejected in favor of someone 15 years younger than her, and AOC’s reason for not selecting her—a lack of experience—could be pretextual.
