WREELE, JR.ttt Guaranteeing equal employment opportunity in federally created jobs has traditionally been at the forefront of the Government's attack on nationwide racial discrimination. This emphasis reflects the Gov- ernment's ostensibly great ability to change patterns of employment where the sanction of withholding federal funds is available. A series of executive orders has been promulgated to effectuate these policies.1 Currently effective is Executive Order 11246,2 re- quiring that contractors on projects involving federal funds shall "not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin." I Moreover, the con- tractor is obligated to "take afllrinative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, color, religion, sex or national origin." 4 Responsibility for the administration of this Order resides in the Secretary of Labor. The Secretary has broad rulemaking power to define the scope of the contractor's duty of affirmative action.5 In addition, both the Secretary and the contracting agency have authority to initiate investigations and to hold hearings to determine com- pliance.6 Finally, these same parties are delegated authority to invoke severe sanctions against noncomplying contractors, ranging from can- t Associate Professor of Political Science, Tufts University.
