DEI in the federal government is chasing a problem that doesn't exist. The federal workforce is almost 19% Black - which is an overrepresentation (which is fine). Where's the problem? We don't need useless and expensive DEI departments in federal agencies.
Drill down a bit ...

"... Nearly 19% of the federal workforce identified as Black and 10% identified as Hispanic compared to 13% and 19% of the U.S. labor force, respectively.

... While 40% of the federal workforce was comprised of individuals who identify as part of a racial or ethnic minority group, this number diminishes significantly at higher levels on the General Schedule scale. People of color make up much of the federal workforce in positions from the GS-2 to GS-6 level, these grade levels typically comprise lower and entry-level administrative positions. White employees make up much of the workforce above the GS-7 level, which consists of mid-level technical and first-level supervisory positions and top-level technical and supervisory positions.

Twenty-six percent of career Senior Executive Service members identified as a person of color in fiscal 2023, a small increase from 25% in the previous year. Of the federal workforce that was not on the GS scale, 37% identified as a person of color.

... The overall federal workforce was 55% male and 45% female, compared to 53% male and 47% female in the total U.S. labor force. ... Women made up the majority of the federal workforce in GS-3 to GS-9 positions, while men made up the majority of the workforce above the GS-10 level, the SES and positions not on the GS pay scale.

... At the end of fiscal 2023, 30% of federal employees were veterans compared to 5% of the total employed U.S. civilian labor force. In the same year, 25% of new federal hires were veterans. ..."

Also, 20% of the Federal workforce is in Washington D.C. (the rest spread across the country, though quite a lot are in the surrounding Virginia/Maryland area). But the 20% in D.C. creates upward engagement of Black employees due to the racial makeup of the District (and people of color are concentrated in the lower paying jobs).

"Black jobs"
 
There has never been a man more obsessed with and attacking windmills thinking they are giant foes since Don Quixote of La Mancha.

In fact, that great classic sums up Trump and Vance quite well. Don Quixote a madman thinking he is chivalrous nobility while misunderstanding everything. Sancho Panza the faithful dunce servant that will follow his deranged overlord down any ridiculous path.
 
No link it going to explain it that way, but that's effectively what it is.

The "I" in DEI is just an additional initiative go out of your way to make the non-white, cis, straight males feel really welcome at work.

Do you have DEI where you work?
 
As a husband of a foreign service officer who was planning to work a remote State job while we’re in our next post in Africa this administration has totally fucked me. What a bunch of fucking clowns.
These are the evil clowns that make adults afraid to sleep in the dark!
 
And were you ever told that you have to meet quotas in hiring? Any corporate materials saying to meet hiring quotas?
I don't do any hiring. What do quotas have to do with the similarities between AA and DEI?

There are similarities between Michael Jordan and Greg Paulus.
You keep using language (similarities, different sides of same coin) to say DEI and AA are the same thing. But they aren’t.
