Interesting decision. 7th Circuit doubles down on position that long(ish) leaves are not required under ADA. Law still murky in this area. Thanks for the heads up, @FramNELI!

Although post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is often thought of as combat-related, there are actually far more women than men who suffer from the disorder. Most women affected by PTSD have experienced sexual violence. https://t.co/EpJXaBe4qA
