The Pentagon’s review of 8(a) contracts addresses abuse, but it doesn’t resolve the underlying problem. As long as race determines eligibility, the constitutional issue remains.

“This is a very, very serious issue right now for Disney. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel, or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.” – FCC Chair Brendan Carr Jawboning? You decide. Jawboning
