Ending Diversity Programs in US Department of Defense
This act aims to remove provisions related to diversity, equity, and inclusion from the Department of Defense. This means the military will no longer focus on these issues in its operations, potentially affecting recruitment, promotion, and training policies. These changes could alter how the military approaches personnel matters and human resource management.
Key points
Elimination of the Chief Diversity Officer position within the Department of Defense.
Cessation of diversity considerations in selection boards for promotions and other military committees.
Repeal of the requirement to identify gender or personal pronouns in official military correspondence.
Modification of human relations training to focus on honor, excellence, courage, and commitment, rather than diversity.
