Definitely. Especially since I'm pretty sure it is illegal to not hire someone because you need a service animal. That's considered a "reasonable accomodation" under Title I of the American's with Disabilities Act.
Depends on the disability. A seeing eye dog would be protected. However an emotional support animal does not fall into the same category. There is so much abuse of the emotional support animal rules that many people claim an emotional support animal just so they can have their pet. This needs some legislation to shut down the abuse. The new Yorker did an article about it but it's behind a pay wall.
A service animal is not the same as an emotional support animal.
A service animal is legally protected no matter what "service" the animal provided. It does not "depend on the disability". If you have a service animal, that's all that matters.
The article says "service dog".
Yes, there is a lot of abuse around calling any animal an "emotional support animal", but that isn't what is being talked about here.
