GOP Lawmakers Aim to Strip Government of All DEI Programs
28th June 2024
A group of Republican lawmakers is working to strip all DEI programs out of the government through legislation they call the Dismantle DEI Act.
“This bill goes through the federal government and works to remove the officers, the programs” centered on DEI, or diversity, equity, and inclusion, Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, says.
Cloud and Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, along with 20 other members of Congress, introduced the Dismantle DEI Act to end the use of taxpayer money to fund programs that Cloud says are discriminatory in nature.
