President Donald Trump has ordered a sweeping dismantling of the federal government’s diversity and inclusion programs that could include everything from anti-bias training to funding for minority farmers and homeowners.
A man was shot three times on the Northwest Side following a potential road rage incident, according to the San Antonio Police Department.
The executive order picks up where Trump's first administration left off: One of Trump’s final acts during his first term wasbanning federal agency contractors and recipients of federal funding from conducting anti-bias training that addressed concepts like systemic racism. Bidenon his first day in office and issued a pair of executive orders — now rescinded — outlining a plan to promote DEI throughout the federal government.
Trump's executive order will toss out equity plans developed by federal agencies and terminate any roles or offices dedicated to promoting diversity. That will likely include eliminating initiatives such DEI-related training or diversity goals in performance reviews.
For example, the Biden administration banned federal agencies from asking about an applicant's salary history when setting compensation, a practice many civil rights activists say perpetuates pay disparities for women and people of color.
Bains said that's what Biden's DEI policies were about: ensuring that the federal government was structured to include historically marginalized communities, not institute “reverse discrimination against white men.”
