lgbtq people received the right to hold a job (2020)

Sorry, I'm not from the US can you explain what you mean by this? LGBTQ+ people have legally had jobs in the US for longer than that....

Yes, but we could be fired for it (as in, the employer openly proclaims that as the reason) without legal repercussion at the national level of law.

Oh wow, that's fucking crazy that it took til 2020 to get that protection.

Thanks!
