A federal lawsuit has been filed against the state of Tennessee, challenging laws that require the governor to consider race when appointing members to state medical and chiropractic boards.

The lawsuit, filed by the medical professionals’ association Do No Harm and represented by the Pacific Legal Foundation, alleges that these racial quotas are unconstitutional and violate the principle of equality before the law.
