flag The DA launched a campaign to replace South Africa’s race-based B-BBEE policy with a new bill focused on poverty and job creation for all.

flag The Democratic Alliance (DA) launched a campaign on October 28, 2025, to replace South Africa’s Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) policy with a new Economic Inclusion for All Bill, arguing that race-based policies have failed to reduce poverty and instead enriched a small elite. flag The party unveiled a billboard criticizing B-BBEE, claiming it has not lifted the majority out of poverty, and introduced an online portal to gather public input. flag The proposed bill aims to shift government procurement to prioritize poverty alleviation, job creation, and measurable economic contributions over race. flag DA leaders, including Helen Zille, assert the new framework promotes fairness and economic mobility for all, regardless of race, while maintaining that apartheid’s legacy requires inclusive solutions. flag The initiative has sparked debate over its political implications and effectiveness.
