United Parcel Service, a new poll released today finds that an overwhelming majority of Americans—79 percent—believe that the Supreme Court should side with Peggy Young. Young, a former United Parcel Service, or UPS, driver, charged UPS with violating the Pregnancy Discrimination Act after the company denied her request for temporary light duty after Young’s doctor recommended she refrain from heavy lifting during her pregnancy.
