Urge reversing presidential order allowing racial segregation in federal contracts

To: Rep. Clarke, Sen. Schumer, Sen. Gillibrand

From: A verified voter in Brooklyn, NY

March 19

The President has issued an order removing the ban on federal contracts with businesses that operate racially segregated facilities, a significant reversal from policies promoting racial integration and equal opportunity. This regressive move risks resurrecting the injustices of the past and undermining hard-won civil rights victories. Segregation perpetuates systemic discrimination, denies equal access to opportunities, and propagates harmful prejudices that divide communities. It deprives citizens of their constitutionally protected rights and flies in the face of the nation's core values of equality and justice for all.
