AT-Will Terminitation

My company is having layoffs next month (no severence). I plan on resigning on Monday and giving 3 weeks notice. Can they ask me to leave the day I give notice and then not pay me for those 3 weeks? They have never done this before but is it possible. Would I have a case against the company for discrimination if I'm the only one they do this to?

termination

yes, unfortunately they can terminate you immrdiately upon giving notice.
There is a WARN Act for mass layoffs which does provide for some protection in certain cases, but not if you resign before the layoff.
