Last week, the Supreme Court heard arguments to decide whether or not a gender discrimination case against Walmart may proceed as a class action lawsuit of more than 1.5 million women. The foundation of the suit is over a decade old, starting with six women with legitimate claims of discrimination in the workplace. Today, the class action suit could include over 1.5 million women, 3,400 stores and positions across the spectrum.
Such a suit suggests that either Walmart has a policy of discrimination towards women or that women are discriminated against universally across the country.
