Heidi Guevara has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of the Treasury and Scott Bessent in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division. The case revolves around allegations of disability discrimination, retaliation, and hostile work environment under the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Guevara claims she was wrongfully terminated from her position as a Customer Service Representative at the Internal Revenue Service due to her disability and requests for reasonable accommodations. She alleges that her supervisors failed to provide necessary accommodations, such as modified seating and time off for medical appointments, and harassed her about her condition. The complaint seeks damages for back pay, emotional distress, attorney fees, and punitive damages.
