Former Trump Aide Stephen Miller Sues Biden Administration for Discriminating Against White Farmers
District of Columbia | April 29, 2021
Stephen Miller, the former senior adviser to President Donald Trump, filed a lawsuit on Monday against the Biden Administration over its reparations to non-White farmers, pointing out that this constitutes discrimination against White farmers, as reported by The Hill.
The class-action suit was filed by the legal group founded by Miller, America First Legal (AFL), on behalf of the Agricultural Commissioner of Texas Sid Miller, and other plaintiffs. The suit targets a particular provision of Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill which is set to distribute funds to “socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers,” ostensibly to make up for “systemic racism” and past oppression.
This provision, administered by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), is “actively and invidiously discriminating against American citizens solely based upon their race,” as the lawsuit reads. “The Department of Agriculture interprets this phrase to include African-Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Alaskan natives, Asian-Americans, and Pacific Islanders, but White farmers are not included.”
“These racial exclusions are patently unconstitutional,” the suit concludes, “and the Court should permanently enjoin their enforcement.”..
