In pursuit of “Equality Under the Law” and a true colorblind society for all Americans, WILL filed a lawsuit against a San Antonio-based government program called the “Bexar County Small Business Assistance Program.”
We alleged that the $10 million program discriminates against small business owners based on race. The lawsuit names Bexar County, the home of San Antonio, and Liftfund Inc., a non-profit charged by the county to administer the program.
🗯 Dan Lennington, WILL Deputy Counsel, stated, “Last month, the U.S. Supreme Court emphatically declared that race discrimination violates federal law, and that claims of ‘diversity’ can never justify discrimination. WILL promises to fight discrimination wherever it rears its head. Our message is simple: if you discriminate against anyone based on race, you will go to court, and we will see to it that you lose.”
🗯 Greg Gomm, President and Founder of DigitalDesk, Inc. stated, “Based on the principles of equality and justice in law, governments must not be allowed to tip the scales using equity measurements of race, sex and gender. I hope that this lawsuit brings to light this illegal practice that is occurring in our nation, and hope that more Americans will join the fight.”
