The Trump Administration Is Trying To Crack Down on DEI In Every Workplace

Liz Theran, the senior director of litigation for education and workplace justice at the National Women’s Law Center, told HuffPost that the types of “discrimination” Lucas called out give an ominous view of the EEOC’s goals.

“It’s obviously an oblique reference to this boogeyman of anti-majority discrimination,” Theran said. “How many people are experiencing discrimination at work for being American? It’s a dogwhistle for the far-right base.”

“Trump’s agenda for the EEOC is dangerous and anti-worker,” she added.
