Indiana is forging ahead in its efforts to dump diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in state government.
Indiana Gov. Mike Braun, after signing a January executive order banning DEI programs from state agencies, released a report on Wednesday with a list of over 350 instances of DEI policies, programs, and hiring procedures that the state will eliminate.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion programs insist on the preferential treatment of certain minority groups, often based on race, gender, and sexual orientation. DEI policies are used in college admissions, hiring decisions, health care, and corporate practices.
The Supreme Court declared affirmative action, a hallmark practice of DEI, unconstitutional in the 2023 case Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. vs. President and Fellows of Harvard College.
Indiana was the second state to ban DEI programs by executive order, following West Virginia, according to a January report by Inside Higher Ed.
