>I regularly submit workforce participation plans for government construction projects that have minority and women labor hour goals with 100% white male labor hours and receive approval to proceed. Things are not as black and white in reality as the media has led you to believe. I deal with state and local municipal and county governments regularly, my state’s Dept of Labor and Industry does not care what your last name or company is.

You really think your state's department of whatever doesn't turn the screws a little harder on the smaller companies that have to just take it?
I'm perfectly willing to believe that the demographic breakdown of labor isn't something they care much about but literally everyone with a set of functioning eyes and ears in the construction industry has endless stories about having to jump through some stupid hoop that a more favored player didn't have to because of a capricious government official or group of them. It's kinda sus that you think that doesn't happen.
