The man behind the landmark Supreme Court challenge against race-based college admissions policies is now suing to prevent an Alabama licensing board from imposing a “racial quota.”

The lawsuit marks conservative anti-affirmative action litigant Edward Blum’s first case against race-based criteria for membership on a state regulatory board. Blum’s group, American Alliance for Equal Rights, named Gov. Kay Ivey (R-AL) as one of the defendants because she is tasked with making appointments to the real estate appraiser board.
