"Federal Judge Orders Minority Business Agency to Serve All Races"

A judge in Texas has ruled that the Minority Business Development Agency, established to assist minority-owned businesses, must open its services to all races and ethnicities, including white people. The ruling came after three white business owners claimed they were discriminated against by the agency. The judge argued that while the agency aimed to reverse discrimination against people of color, it in turn discriminated against white individuals, violating the Fifth Amendment's equal protection guarantees.
