"We're still working to get that legislation passed in Congress...We need to build a society built on merit and DEI not being the determinant in all these discussions." Representative Michael Cloud (R-TX) highlights ongoing efforts in Congress to pass legislation aimed at removing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives from government agencies and institutions. He emphasizes a shift toward a merit-based society, noting that the current administration and a new generation of Americans are increasingly supportive of returning to traditional values.
