Florida Attorney General Demands Roger Goodell Stop Minority Rule By May 1

James Uthmeier sent a letter demanding that the Rooney Rule no longer be applied to NFL teams in Florida. In the letter, Uthmeier asks for confirmation by May 1 “that the NFL will no longer enforce the Rooney Rule — which requires consideration of race, sex, or any other prohibited classification — on teams in Florida.” Uthmeier adds that "failure may result in a civil rights enforcement action.”
