Last month, Michigan voters overwhelmingly voted for Proposal 2, which outlaws the use of affirmative action for racial or gender preferences in government hiring or college admissions programs.

Mark Rosenbaum is an ACLU lawyer who has fought similar cases in California. He is also a U of M law professor. Michigan Radio’s Jack Lessenberry spoke with him.
