The city of Cincinnati is facing a legal challenge from a group of Black homeowners who filed suit, accusing the city of running a discriminatory tax break program. Earlier this month, a federal judge ruled that the lawsuit, filed last year, can move forward.
The suit claims Cincinnati is more segregated because of the way the city hands out tax abatements to homeowners.
