As a #longtimefed the only “DEI” employment initiative I ever saw in action was Veterans Preference, which was established by law in 1944.

Was it sometimes a hassle to “clear” a veteran who had applied for a job? Yes. Did it sometimes feature a qualified veteran who turned out to be perfect for the job? Yes. Did it lead to an unqualified veteran being hired instead of a qualified non veteran? No.

marleed Yea, as a retired DoD Army civilian the comments made by those ‘advising‘ POTUS infuriate me. He has normalized hateful, off-the-cuff and/or even deliberate, inaccurate speech. It will take generations to recover from all this hate and intolerance. 2w
AmyG You can‘t say you support veterans while at the same time gut veteran services. 2w
