Trump administration ends government diversity programs

Season 2025 Episode 22 | 4m 34s

The Trump administration ordered all federal employees who work in diversity, equity and inclusion roles to be placed on paid leave. Agency supervisors were also asked to submit a written plan by the end of the month for dismissing the employees. It’s part one of the administration’s efforts to upend DEI efforts nationwide. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Jeff Green of Bloomberg News.
