Senate Democrats Vote to Allow Asian Racial Discrimination in Higher Education
WENDELL HUSEBO 22 Apr 2021
Senate Democrats have voted down an amendment to forbid Asian racial discrimination in higher education by a vote of 49-48.
The amendment, proposed by Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and John Kennedy (R-LA), did not meet the needed 60 vote yea threshold to pass.
The amendment states:
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no institution of higher education (as defined in section 102 of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1002)) may receive any Federal funding if the institution has a policy in place or engages in a practice that discriminates against Asian Americans in recruitment, applicant review, or admissions.
Kennedy said of the amendment’s failure, “In an unbelievably cynical move, Senate Democrats blocked efforts to stop discrimination against Asian Americans in higher education, where racial bias has become all too common.”
“This amendment would bar funds from institutions that discriminate against Asian American students,” Kennedy continued.
“Despite their calls to end racism, it is clear Democrats are only paying lip service to fighting discrimination against Asian Americans and will allow targeted discrimination against them to continue at America’s universities and colleges,” the Louisiana senator concluded.

It's not really about asian americans though. Personally, I'm against any preference in public college admissions unless its based on race neutral socio-econ reasons.At the same time my far-left friends

Private schools are already tilted to legacy and those who can buy their way in. And, imo, it's not our biz, unless they do something like banning women, jews, blacks or muslims.
How is it not about Asians when they are the ones being discriminated against?
