Acting Comptroller Hancock faces lawsuit for unilaterally cutting women and people of color out of the Historically Underutilized Business program

Attorneys for the plaintiffs argue it’s extra egregious because Acting Comptroller Hancock was not elected to his position; Republicans and Democrats have agreed that it was an “inside job”; Hancock has said the program as it existed is “discriminatory and doesn't abide within the Constitution”

A lawsuit filed in Travis County alleges acting Comptroller Kelly Hancock and three stage agency heads overstepped their authority when they restructured a longtime program meant to diversify the pool of state contractors. In December, Hancock announced he was restructuring the Historically Underutilized Business program to only focus on businesses run by veterans with certain disabilities, cutting out people of color and women who have been included in the program for decades. Hancock also renamed it VetHUB.

The lawsuit also has Texas Capitol players again talking about the way in which Hancock left the Senate and was, as one put it, “snuck into the spot he’s in now.”
