People should be suing these companies. It ia literally the only way
Agreed. Betcha that list of preferred candidates corresponds exactly to a list of candidates eligible for kind of federal subsidy: ie, the administration is bribing companies to do that.
n.b. a list of “prioritized candidates” indicates its opposite exists: a list of “de-prioritized” or those to be discriminated against (disenfranchised).
Remember when companies boasted, “We don’t discriminate on the basis of color, creed, sex...etc” ?
