Trump Administration Orders Federal DEI Employees on Paid Leave by 5 PM, Signals Shutdown of DEI Offices
Jan 22, 2025, 02:23 AM
The Trump administration has issued an order directing all federal employees in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) roles to be placed on paid leave by 5:00 PM on Wednesday. This directive is part of a broader move to shut down DEI offices across federal government agencies. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has provided an email template for federal workers, stating that DEI programs have 'divided Americans by race, wasted taxpayer dollars, and resulted in shameful discrimination.' The administration's actions signal a significant shift in policy regarding DEI initiatives within the federal government.
