CO Anti-Affirmative Action Initiative: ACRI Opening Brief in Title Challenge

The petition considered in this case is one of a series of 5 anti-affirmative action initiatives being forwarded for the fall of 2008 by the so-called American Civil Rights Institute. Each initiative is deceptively billed as a ban on "discrimination" and "preferences," and in this brief, the ACRI initiative proponents defend their measure against charges that it is misleading, uses impermissable catch phrases designed to prejudice voters, and is too broad to be considered in a single initiative.
