Question Presented (from Petition)

1) The "Sec. 8. Affirmatively Advancing Civil Rights ... to prevent and address discrimination and advance equity for all" clause of the 2/16/2023 Presidential Executive Order 1 results in Russell's Paradox 2, and it must be corrected as a logically unacceptable conclusion to a less deceitful "equity for some. " Is the mandate to selectively "advance equity " (for only some) Constitutional?

2) The Commonwealth of Massachusetts aims to "double protect" 3 some citizens at the expense of revoking all protections from others, including Constitutional rights. Does "double protecting " some waive Constitutional protections for all?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Does the mandate to selectively 'advance equity' (for only some) violate the Constitution?
