DABNEY L. FRIEDRICH, United States District Judge
In the fall of 2016, Naomi Touvian informed her employer that she would miss seven days of work in October to observe Jewish holidays. Touvian alleges that a trio of adverse actions were taken to retaliate against her for this and related events, and she asserts retaliation claims under Title VII and the D.C. Human Rights Act. Before the Court is the defendant's motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. For the reasons that follow, the Court will grant the motion in part and deny it in part.
