Summary: Ho-Chunk, Inc., a tribal-entity business, opposes the proposed FAR clause because it could lead to the misclassification of mandatory tribal programs as discriminatory DEI activities. They argue that tribal programs are based on unique government-to-government legal obligations and political status rather than race, and express concern that the broad language of the clause could lead to unintended legal consequences or malicious claims by competitors.
