Re: Pay cut

The brief facts you describe may indicate that you are being discriminated against because of a disability, or at least becaukse your boss perceives you as having a disability. If that, in fact is the reason for the cut in pay and responsibilities, it is probably illegal. However, it would be necessary to ascertain all the facts surrounding your situation.
