The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program, a $37 billion federal initiative, has historically aimed to support minority- and women-owned businesses by allocating at least 10% of federal transportation funding to these groups. Recent legal challenges have led to moves to dismantle the program, citing constitutional concerns over race and gender considerations in awarding contracts .(The Washington Post)


Beneficiaries by Race and Gender​


Race-Based Beneficiaries:


  • Black-Owned Businesses: In fiscal year 2020, Black-owned small businesses received approximately 1.7% of federal contracting dollars . Additionally, a 2021 McKinsey report noted that Black-owned businesses generated $59.6 billion in revenue in 2022, marking a 4.6% increase from the previous year .(The White House, Farris Legal Services LLC)
  • Hispanic-Owned Businesses: These businesses received about 1.8% of federal contracting dollars in FY 2020 . In 2022, their revenue totaled $77.7 billion, a 23.3% increase from 2021 .(The White House, Farris Legal Services LLC)
  • Asian-Owned Businesses: Asian American and Pacific Islander-owned small businesses received approximately 2.8% of federal contracting dollars in FY 2020 . Their revenue in 2022 was $94.4 billion, a 34.9% increase from the previous year .(The White House, Farris Legal Services LLC)
  • Native American-Owned Businesses: These businesses generated $13.5 billion in revenue in 2022, reflecting a 12.5% increase from 2021 . Specific federal contracting percentages for this group were not detailed in the available data.

Gender-Based Beneficiaries:


Women-owned businesses have also significantly benefited from the DBE program. For instance, in Mississippi, 87% of DBE funds—approximately $19.5 million out of $22.4 million—were awarded to women-owned businesses. Similarly, in Indiana, women received 68% of DBE funds, amounting to $21.5 million out of $31.5 million .(The Washington Post, Congress.gov)


Summary​


The DBE program has played a crucial role in supporting minority- and women-owned businesses, providing them with access to federal contracts and contributing to significant revenue growth across various demographics. The recent legal challenges and potential dismantling of the program raise concerns about the future support for these businesses and the broader implications for diversity and inclusion in federal contracting.(The Washington Post)

Roland Martin is blaming FBA, B1, Phillip Scott, Boyce Watkins and Jason Black for Trump winning the election :mjlol:

Reality is that the dems ran the worst campaign and we just now hearing how much infighting was going on within the party due to the arrogance and ego of these politicians......point the blame where it really belongs Roland :camby:
That’s the point how many anti-black initiatives were pushed by that corner to now have nothing to say about what Trump is actually doing? Democrats have to be perfect and Republicans just get to blow things up. And have black activist help Republicans to do it.

Republicans being an office is good for Roland actually. A lot of left-wing commentators make more money during republican eras because people want content that criticizes the incumbent administration.

It’s the policy that’s bad for Democrats.

TYRONE GA!
Mind numbing idiocy.

If they ran a cardboard box it should have beaten Trump. Man is dragging this country and the world economy into the shiit and MFs still want to act like it's another day at the office.

Rights are being rolled back to Civil Rights if not outright abolished. Programs and funds that benefit black folks and the most vulnerable are gutted and repealed. Out and out racism, flirting with a 3rd term, violating and attempts to rewrite the Constitution and you simple minded fools still want to act like it's all the same. There has never been and never will be a justification for voting for Trump.

At least the cardboard box doesn't want you dead or reduced to a underclass.
And some nikkaz still caping for Trump cause he "freed" Larry Hoover

And pardoned YoungBoy

Republicans plan to whoo younger black voters, especially male, is working with acts like this

We're cooked
