Trump taps DEI critic to lead workplace civil rights agency
The National Women’s Law Center — a legal organization suing the EEOC over its treatment of discrimination complaints from transgender workers — decried Lucas’s promotion. “Andrea Lucas was handpicked by Trump to lead the EEOC and his mission of weaponizing the agency to attack hardworking people across the country. As acting chair, she has made clear she is a Trump loyalist dedicated to carrying out his radical crusade against programs that encourage diversity, equity and inclusion,” said Lauren Khouri, senior director of workplace equality.
