The News:<\/strong> The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) filed for a\u00a0preliminary injunction<\/a> to halt the Biden Administration\u2019s new \u201cMinority Business Development Agency\u201d (MBDA). This is the first federal agency devoted to helping Americans of some races, but not others. MBDA refuses to help millions of American-owned businesses based solely on race, including businesses owned by individuals whose ancestors are from Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, and portions of Asia and Central America.<\/div>\n

WILL represents small business owners from Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida in its eighth lawsuit against the Biden Administration, which was filed in federal court in the Northern District of Texas last month.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Quote:<\/strong> WILL Deputy Counsel, Dan Lennington, stated \u201cSince his inauguration, President Biden has targeted equality, seeking to replace it with racial equity. But let\u2019s call equity what it is: race discrimination. Today we are standing up for all Americans and calling on our federal courts to dismantle Biden\u2019s racist equity agenda, one piece at a time.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Background:\u00a0<\/strong>WILL\u2019s lawsuit challenges the Minority Business Development Agency, which was enacted into law through the 2021 Infrastructure Act. This is the first time the federal government has created an agency devoted to helping some races, but not others. The lawsuit alleges that the new agency violates the Equal Protection Doctrine, which guarantees that all individuals must be treated equally, without regard to race.<\/div>\n
