Donald Trump's administration has implemented two executive orders that drastically roll back diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in the federal government. The first order dismantles Joe Biden's DEI programs, while the second forbids any DEI-related activities government-wide. This move is significant as it also nullifies historical measures, such as ones introduced during the civil rights era. The vague language of the orders raises concerns among advocates about their potential widespread impact on the American workforce, given the mandate for federal employees to report any DEI efforts they observe among colleagues.
The first executive order reverses Joe Biden's DEI policies in federal agencies, terminating activities deemed illegal and broadly restricting DEI measures in government.
A second executive order categorically eliminates DEI programs within the federal government, dismantling measures established even from past administrations, including civil rights initiatives.
