The new Cook County flag is hung outside the County Building in Chicago in September.
“Litigation was recently filed against the County regarding the Cook County Grow Grant program,” the program website says. “In order to assist small businesses as quickly as possible, we have chosen to rescind the Grow Grant program and restructure and redesign our small business grant program.”“It is wrong for the government to grant preferential treatment based on race,” Andrew Quinio, an attorney at Pacific Legal Foundation, said in a release when the case was filed.
“There were no restrictions on applicants,” Nick Mathiowdis, a spokesman for Preckwinkle, told the Tribune in an email. “Any business that met the eligibility criteria below and submitted their application with all the correct documentation would have been considered.”Cusano’s complaint asked that the county be permanently barred “from enforcing” the program’s prioritization of minority business owners, pay for attorneys’ fees and $1 in damages.
Good for them.
watch whiteness work 'In 1922, Chicago had the largest Klan membership of any city. Klan members were better educated & more likely to hold professional jobs than the typical American.'
That's funny, after 350 years of white Supremacist policy... Whites are suing to keep that system in place. Who woulda thunk it! 🤷🏾♂️
Discrimination works both ways and is everywhere in our USA, unfortunately
White people are being discriminated against and have to start suing as much as possible to stop discrimination, Supreme Court has several affirmative action lawsuits coming up hopefully they turn around a lot of these discrimination laws affecting white people.
He’s right
