Political Quotes

“This amendment would prohibit funding for the Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Workgroup that advances the Biden administration's radical DEI agenda. This workgroup's website links to a page of resources with hundreds of woke documents. From the military to corporations to Federal agencies, we have seen time and time again that the DEI mission fosters division in the workplace. DEI undermines our shared American identity and distracts from the missions of our Federal agencies. DEI hurts recruiting efforts and erodes trust between all Federal employees and the government they serve. At a time when our growing national debt has surpassed $34 trillion, we cannot continue to use taxpayer dollars to fund wasteful and unnecessary woke programs. Mr. Chair, I urge my colleagues to support this amendment and prohibit funding for policies that advance the Biden administration's radical diversity, equity, and inclusion agenda, and I reserve the balance of my time.”
