ACR Project Notifies Sacramento County and California Department of Social Services of Intent to Sue to Block Racially Exclusive Family First Economic Support Pilot

Once more, a California jurisdiction, underwritten by the state, has announced the pending launch of a racially exclusive basic minimum income program.  Once more, we have warned them that it clearly violates (at least) the U.S. Constitution, the California Constitution, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Laws banning discrimination have been on the books across America for more than a century and a half. Their prohibitions are among the most morally grounded, widely known, and widely supported in our law. Despite these facts, the last decade saw a cavalcade of corporations adopt policies that seemingly commit to violating these laws.
