He’s given the public 30 days to voice their concerns.
This plan will expose non-minority city employees to a hostile work environment, put children at greater risk from abusive parents, and hand out tax dollars as reparations to enable “communities harmed by racism to purchase government and non-government land.”
That’s just for starters.
Under this 375-page plan, the city’s entire hiring, promotion and spending apparatus will revolve around group identities — in a misguided effort to even the score for alleged past injustices against racial and sexual minorities, women, the disabled and immigrants.
