That appears to cover consumers, but doesn’t cover employees. Is there another law that also refers to ancestry that applies in the employment context?

FEHA covers this. Between the two, consumers and employees are already protected.
I’ve been convinced by your points here (and a few others). I strongly strongly suspect caste discrimination is a real thing that happens and that is hard to detect/address, but agreed that it’s adequately accounted for legislatively, at least in California. And yeah, I’ve been convinced of the potential negative effects of such additional legislation, redundant or not.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts + info!
