Don’t allow segregation in Federal Contracting Policies

To: Sen. Johnson, Sen. Baldwin, Rep. Pocan

From: A constituent in Madison, WI

March 23

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding recent changes to federal contracting policies under the Trump administration. Specifically, the removal of explicit prohibitions against segregated facilities in government contracts is alarming and raises serious questions about the direction of our nation's commitment to civil rights and equality. While segregation remains illegal under U.S. law, the absence of explicit prohibitions sends a troubling message that could undermine decades of progress in combating discrimination. This policy shift appears to align with broader efforts to roll back diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, which are vital for fostering a fair and just society. As your constituent, I urge you to take immediate action to address this issue. Please consider advocating for legislation that reinstates explicit prohibitions against segregated facilities in federal contracts and strengthens protections against discrimination. It is imperative that we uphold the principles of equality and justice that define our nation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing about the steps you will take to ensure that civil rights remain a cornerstone of our federal policies.
