"I don't think the timelines are clear... we hear a lot of things like, ‘It’s going to take time,’ and that we cannot find minority candidates," said Equity PAC Co-Chair, Jeremy Moore. "And so our question becomes well transparently what are your goals? And how long is it going to take? But also the question looms where are you looking for those minority candidates?" 

Moore said Equity recognizes that this is not going to happen overnight, but that there needs to be a sense of urgency.

"If not, we are going to have the same issue for the next 20 something years," Moore said.
