No Grounds for Discrimination Act

This bill would give all people the right to full and equal use of the goods and services of coffee shops, cafes, tea houses, and similar informal dining places. These businesses could not discriminate against or segregate customers based on religion, race, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, or veteran status. The rule would be enforced the same way as title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It covers places that serve the public, mainly serve coffee, tea, or light refreshments, and either affect commerce or have discrimination supported by State action.
