H.R.3522

Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act of 2025

Introduced·5/20/25

The Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act of 2025 aims to clarify standards for federal employment discrimination and retaliation.

The bill amends the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 and other laws to clarify standards for federal employment discrimination and retaliation claims. It specifies that an unlawful practice is established when the complaining party demonstrates that age or an activity protected by the Act was a motivating factor for any practice, even if other factors also motivated the practice. The bill also amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to clarify the prohibition against impermissible consideration of age in employment practices.
