Trump administration dismantles Biden's prized DEI programs nationwide
The Trump administration has effectively dismantled diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives at the federal level, which were a priority of President Biden's administration. The move includes shutting down all DEI offices and signing executive orders to undo programs started by former President Biden.
The Trump administration has systematically dismantled diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives implemented by the Biden administration, shutting down all DEI offices across the federal government and undermining key programs aimed at promoting equal opportunities for underrepresented groups. President Donald Trump quickly acted to undo many of President Joe Biden's efforts in this area during his first week in office. The move marks a significant shift in focus away from equity and inclusion towards a more traditional merit-based approach to hiring and promotion. This reversal has sparked concerns among civil rights advocates and critics who warn it could exacerbate existing social and economic inequalities.
