You have to file locally in the State for discrimination cases before you can file a federal lawsuit. That takes a lot of time. Especially since all the courts are backed up since COVID.

In the meantime, some lower court Trumper judge in the state sided with anti-vaxxers (saying New York has to pay them restituiton and give them back their old jobs if they were fired for refusing to follow Covid guidelines/get vaxxed). So now a higher court has to deal with undoing that bullshit, before a decision can be made in the case of the safety worker suing over conditions.
