U.S. federal judge allows age discrimination lawsuit by 150 older workers from X after Musk acquisition.

A U.S. federal judge has permitted about 150 older workers laid off from social media platform X, following Elon Musk's acquisition, to pursue a class-action lawsuit for age discrimination. The case, initiated by John Zeman, contends that 60% of workers aged 50 or older were laid off compared to 54% of younger employees. X has denied the allegations, claiming the layoffs were not age-related. This lawsuit is among several others stemming from the 2022 layoffs.
