This article introduces the major provisions of one signed and two proposed employment and labor legislation statutes (the Employment Nondiscrimination Act, the Employee Free Choice Act, and the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act) which are being openly discussed for possible enactment in the near future under the Obama administration. As this legislation is likely to result in increased administrative costs, compliance costs, and litigation costs for small business owners, each statute is examined in terms of its potential impact on small businesses' current employment policies and practices. We conclude by offering possible options for the small business community in dealing with the complexity of these issues.

In June, 2009, the US Supreme Court issued a controversial 5-4 decision involving the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), which prohibits an employer from taking an adverse employment action against an employee "because of such individual's age." Gross v. FLB Financial Services Inc was a mixed-motives disparate treatment case, in which both discriminatory and legitimate factors allegedly accounted for FBL's decision to demote a 54-year-old employee. Speaking for the five conservative Justices, Justice Clarence Thomas rejected the argument that the analytical formula that applies in mixed-motives cases brought under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act also applies in ADEA cases. Details of the case are presented.
