On the Emmys red carpet, actress Laverne Cox used a clutch bag to draw attention to an upcoming Supreme Court ruling about discrimination based on transgender status
Washington Actress Laverne Cox on Sunday used her time on the 2019 Emmys red carpet to discuss an upcoming Supreme Court case that will decide whether federal employment law that bans discrimination based on sex does the same based on transgender status.
