Opponents of a ban argue that affirmative action is a tool for addressing historical and systemic inequalities and ensuring that diverse businesses have a fair chance in the competitive bidding process. They believe that without affirmative action, minority-owned and disadvantaged businesses might struggle to compete on an equal footing with larger, more established firms.
