Biden Administration Investigates Cleveland Clinic for Discriminating Against White Patients

Sep 16, 2024, 07:17 PM

The Biden administration has initiated an investigation into the Cleveland Clinic following a civil rights complaint. The complaint alleges that the Clinic's Minority Stroke Program and Minority Men's Health Center violate federal law by focusing their efforts on specific racial groups. The Department of Health and Human Services' Office for Civil Rights has determined that there is sufficient authority and cause to investigate these allegations of discriminating against white patients. This marks the first such probe by the agency under the Biden-Harris administration, which has been reluctant to police racial preferences.
