Is DEI DIEing?

Eyepatch John McCain introduces a bill to forbid federal funding for any colleges that demand pro-DEI loyalty oaths.

Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw is the latest Republican politician to introduce legislation to combat mandatory Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion statements in higher education.

On Dec. 18, Crenshaw announced proposed legislation that would prohibit federal funding to any college or university that forces its students to write or support DEI statements.

"We can see the utter moral bankruptcy in higher education with the spread of antisemitism on college campuses," Crenshaw said in a press release.

"Make no mistake -- the DEI bureaucracy is directly responsible for a toxic campus culture that separates everyone into oppressor vs oppressed," he continued. "That's why I am dropping legislation to protect free thought and prevent federal funding for universities that force students to write diversity, equity, and inclusion statements."

More specifically, the bill would amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 "to prohibit institutions of higher education from requiring ideological oaths or similar statements, and for other purposes." If enacted, the legislation would also bar colleges from imposing such statements on prospective employees and applicants.

The Washington Examiner says DEI is in retreat.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI, in higher education was deceptively sold as a set of policies designed to promote "the fair treatment and full participation of all people," particularly groups that "have historically been underrepresented." But DEI offices have proved to be epicenters of division and ideological conformity, stirring hostilities and imposing an intolerant monoculture.

Fortunately, 2023 saw more than a dozen states start to take action against the DEI hydra, with six achieving concrete steps that other states should follow.

In Florida, colleges and universities are no longer allowed to allocate any money to DEI programs. Institutions across the state have, in consequence, eliminated DEI jobs, such as chief diversity officers. This is greatly to the good of real education and social cohesion. These officers are often in charge of college "bias response teams" that function as "woke" police on campuses. A Supreme Court case is set to shut many of these programs down, but states can take proactive steps now to solve the problem faster.

Texas and other states are following DeSantis' lead.

John Sexton wrote that corporations are retreating from the hardcore racist discriminatory policies they ran to implement after the non-murder of St. George Floyd.

Quoting Reuters:

JPMorgan (JPM.N) received a letter in May 2022, alleging 10 of its DEI initiatives were discriminatory and unlawful. Around February 2023, the descriptions of the bank's "Advancing Hispanics & Latinos" and "Advancing Black Pathways" programs were changed, according to archived versions of its website.

The programs that were previously for Black and Latino students now invite applications from all students, "regardless of background."...

Investment manager BlackRock (BLK.N), which received a letter in April, removed language stating a scholarship was "designed for" members of specific underrepresented groups...

The companies where Reuters found changes included Pizza Hut operator Yum! Brands (YUM.N), American Airlines (AAL.O) and Lowe's (LOW.N), which declined to comment...

In their most recent executive compensation plans, Yum! Brands removed references to specific racial groups and American Airlines dropped numerical diversity targets.
