On this reading of the text, therefore, the | disadvantage that he alleges is not one that the statute addresses." | | The New Orleans-based Fifth Circuit reached the same conclusion as | VanDyke in a 1986 ruling: "Discrimination against whites is racial | discrimination, but (in America) discrimination against Americans | can never be discrimination based on alienage. It can only be | discrimination based on national origin," which is not prohibited by | section 1981. | | The conflict between circuit courts and a vigorous dissent in this | case increase the odds the U.S. Supreme Court will step in. Section | 1981 should not mean one thing in San Diego and another in New | Orleans. Will Trump use his bully pulpit to twist Mike Johnson and Thune to make legacy American proles a protected class and how much does Amy Swonger believe it will cost?
