The party warns that if workers refuse to disclose their race, employers will have to classify them using definitions that have not changed since 1998. They vowed to legally fight against forced racial classification. The DA’s Michael Bagraim urged the government to repeal the regulations and focus on creating jobs for all citizens instead.
