Later today, we will be in court for oral arguments on the City of Evanston’s motion to dismiss our lawsuit challenging the city’s race-based “reparations” program.

And we need your help!

Our historic lawsuit argues that the city’s use of race as an eligibility requirement for this program…which makes $25,000 direct cash payments to black residents and descendants of black residents…violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

And the program uses race as a proxy for discrimination, without requiring actual proof ofdiscrimination!

I am optimistic our lawsuit will proceed, because Evanston’s program is clearly discriminatory and unconstitutional…yet sadly, reparations are gaining steam in other liberal cities and states across the country.

That’s why Judicial Watch’s class-action lawsuit on behalf of six white individuals is so critically important…because if we prevail in Evanston we will be creating a potentially precedent-setting legal standard to challenge and strike down other race-based programs.

And that’s why I am asking you to support us with a contribution today.

However the court rules on the city’s motion to dismiss our lawsuit, we will continue this litigation all the way to the end of the legal road…and that includes, if necessary, the federal appeals courts all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court!

We are committed to fighting for our “color-blind” Constitution and its “equal protection” guarantees for all Americans where it counts, through the legal system and the courts.

But all our efforts…legal research, investigations, and filing lawsuits…come with very real price tags attached, especially when we are confronting the deep pockets of government lawyers!

That’s why I am hopeful you will decide to join with us and help support all our work on behalf of the rule of law, with a special contribution today.

Thank you in advance for your decision to support our work!

Sincerely,

Thomas Fitton
President
