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.

California: One Big Step Forward, Four Small Steps Back

California's legislature seemingly just can't help itself. Even after quiet-killing yet another effort to amend the state's constitution to reauthorize racial discrimination, last week, Assembly committees sent to the floor bills to racially classify Californians and start awarding benefits to Californians based on those classifications.

American Civil Rights Project and Californians for Equal Rights Foundation Register with California Assembly Our Opposition to ACA 7

Today, the ACR Project joined CFER in formally registering with the California's Assembly our opposition to ACA 7. In the aftermath of the Supreme Court's SFFA decisions, ACA 7 is legally untenable. Because it puts at risk billions in federal funding, it's fiscally irresponsible. And it asks voters to approve the same discrimination they've twice rejected (by accelerating margins) in 25 years.

Open Letter for Shareholder to Officers and Directors of Levi Strauss & Co.

Today, on behalf of a concerned Levi's shareholder, the ACR Project demanded that the company publicly retract its illegal, discriminatory training policies. Levi's has chosen to make available to its employees training programs defined by the immutable characteristics of participants (excluding all employees from participation unless they are of -- respectively -- the right race, ethnicity, or sex).  But an employer discriminating in the training it makes available based on race, national origin, and sex violates longstanding federal and state laws.

Open Letter for Shareholders to Officers and Directors of Pfizer, Inc.

Today, on behalf of concerned Pfizer shareholders, the ACR Project demanded that the company publicly retract a set of illegal, discriminatory policies. Those policies inject race, ethnicity, and sex into every level of Pfizer's hiring and promotions, ranging from its summer internships to its top executives and directors. These policies -- admitted on Pfizer's webpage -- violate state and federal laws, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, and a host of state laws, including those of New York (where Pfizer headquarters) and Delaware (where it incorporated).
