Mills introduces bill to eliminate DEI programs in federal government

Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) is introducing legislation aimed at bolstering President Donald Trump‘s efforts to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and initiatives throughout the federal government.

Trump issued an executive order on his first day back in the White House aiming to eliminate DEI programs in the federal government, programs he said in the order “corrupted” various offices “by replacing hard work, merit, and equality with a divisive and dangerous preferential hierarchy.” The Trump administration has also ordered federal employees to report any efforts to continue DEI efforts under different titles or methods as it seeks to eliminate the programs.
