Texas on the Verge of Banning Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Offices in Public Universities

Once this is in place, hopefully it will serve as a model for other states.

The Texas Tribune reports:

Texas lawmakers find consensus on bill banning diversity, equity and inclusion offices in public universities

Texas public universities’ diversity, equity and inclusion offices likely have six months left before they’re banished.

State lawmakers came to an agreement Saturday on legislation that would ban DEI offices, programs and training at publicly funded universities, largely adopting the version that the Texas House approved a week ago, with some minor changes.

More states need to follow this path. The fact that we have so many GOP governors and state legislatures and this has not already been done, says a lot about those politicians.

Texas RINO’s who are impeaching Paxton, will probably sink this policy, too.

Good intentions but banning specific leftist schemes is playing a game of whack-a-mole. Regents and presidents need to be removed and replaced with decent human beings with orders to clean house.

Good - this is nothing but a cash cow for an industry created to convince people they have grievances just for existing and others that they are oppressors just for existing. Hilarious they call it equity while they rake in cash pushing this stuff.

“More states need to follow this path. “

It only works if the positions are defunded and the people in the positions are fired. If they remain buried in the organization, through reassignment, they will continue to push the policies.

Banning because they are abused. They’re not about equity anymore. They’re about excluding the most qualified so that a person with more colorful skin can jump over the more qualified.

Race quotas are racists.
