Colia Clark on Civil Rights

Community-owned businesses with inclusive employment

Q: What do you think about requiring companies to hire more women & minorities?

A: SUPPORT - I support investing in New York State and our nation through community-owned, controlled, and sustained businesses that provide employment for women, African Americans, Latino Americans, Asian Americans, Indigenous Americans, and White males, including youth and seniors. It is imperative that affirmative action policy be applied.
