Removes availability of attorney fees under the Missouri Human Rights Act when a public employer is involved

SB 717 removes the ability for plaintiffs to recover attorney fees when suing a public employer under Missouri's Human Rights Act (MHRA). This affects employees or job applicants who bring discrimination claims against government agencies or public entities. The bill amends the MHRA to eliminate a provision that previously allowed courts to award legal fees in such cases. As a result, individuals pursuing discrimination claims against public employers must cover their own legal costs without reimbursement.
