SCOTUS just struck down Affirmative Action -- let's tell them to get rid of legacy admissions

BREAKING NEWS Supreme Court Rejects Affirmative Action at U.S. Colleges [FIGHT BACK→]( Hey guys, By now, you've heard that the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to reject programs at Harvard and the University of North Carolina that included race as a factor in acheiving educational diversity. This move is expected to LOWER the number of Black and Latino students at elite campuses. The Supreme Court's rejection of Affirmative Action is wrong, plain and simple. From Wall Street bailouts to PPP loans, our government is always giving rich -- often white -- people handouts while the rest of us work hard to get by. Legacy admissions are no different. They give rich, mostly white students a boost in college admissions that are completely void of any merit. In fact, at top ten universities, more rich white students are admitted through Legacy Admissions practices than Black and Latino students are admitted through Affirmative Action. This isn't fair. That’s why we’re glad that Rep. Jamaal Bowman and Senator Jeff Merkley have introduced the Fair College Admissions for Students Act to stop the practice of Affirmative Action for rich white people: Legacy Admissions. [If you’d like to see Congress pass the Fair College Admissions for Students Act, add your name to our petition -- and tell Congress we need to END Legacy Admissions.]( [ADD YOUR NAME→]( This is a dark day in our country's history.
