On Friday, US President Donald Trump issued a directive to Federal agencies To separate employees working in diversity, fair and inclusive programs (DEI) within 60 days. This step comes within a series of firm measures that Trump has taken since the beginning of his second term in office.
This order is followed by the previous decision to put these employees on a paid vacation and to ask the heads of agencies to submit plans to reduce the number of Dei offices employees by the end of Friday.
The US Personnel Management Office explained the decision in a note, which was reported by the French News Agency, saying: “Every agency, administration or chairman of the Committee to take action to end, to the maximum law permitted by the law, all Dei, Deia and ‘Environmental justice“Offices and positions within 60 days.”
The memo specifically targeted the roles associated with diversity, fairness, inclusion, dealer and environmental justice initiatives, which represents a major shift in federal policy.
The Environmental Protection Agency defines environmental justice as ensuring fair treatment and involving all individuals, “regardless of income, race, color, national origin, tribal affiliation, or disability, in the decision -making process by proxy and other federal activities that affect human health and society.” environment.”
During his presidential campaign last year, Trump criticized Dei’s initiatives as discriminatory against white men, a claim he used to mobilize support for his broader retreat from progressive policies.
The 78 -year -old Republican has also pledged to abandon policies aimed at supporting transgender people, declaring that the boycott will only recognize two sexes.
Moreover, the administration encouraged federal agencies to ask employees to inquire about employees of any “hiding” DEI programs using an inaccurate encrypted language.
He also demonstrated any recognition of gender diversity, targeting sexually transformed people, especially women in sports and childcare.
Trump has already ended what he described as “radical” positive work in granting federal contracts, and canceled an order implemented in the era of civil rights in the 1960s to combat racism.
His last guidance is part of a broader series of procedures aimed at reshaping federal priorities in line with his conservative program.
