**Decisive Action: Trump Moves to Eradicate DEI Programs Across Federal Government**
In a bold and decisive move, President Donald Trump has ordered all federal employees associated with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs to be placed on paid administrative leave, marking a significant shift in government employment practices.
This directive comes as part of a broader initiative to dismantle what the Trump administration refers to as “radical and wasteful” DEI operations within federal agencies.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that a memo issued by the Office of Personnel Management mandates agencies to take swift action, with notifications to affected employees required by 5:00 PM ET today.
Trump's executive order aims to close all DEI-related offices and programs, as well as eliminate their digital presence from websites and social media platforms.
This latest order is consistent with Trump’s campaign promise of restoring a merit-based hiring system that prioritizes candidates based on skills rather than identity markers.
In her statement, Leavitt emphasized the significance of this policy shift, claiming it represents a victory for Americans of all backgrounds who desire a fair and just workplace free from discriminatory practices.
The executive order also extends to federal contracting, mandating agencies to reject any requirement for contractors to balance their workforce demographics based on race, gender, or sexual orientation.
Critics of DEI programs have long argued that these initiatives do more harm than good by perpetuating a cycle of preference based on identity rather than talent.
As the Trump administration continues to push forward with this agenda, it underscores a growing sentiment among many Americans who seek a return to core values of personal merit and equal opportunity.
This action serves as a strong reminder that the current leadership is committed to fulfilling its promises and transforming federal employment policies for the betterment of all citizens.
