The Hill
The Department of Justice announced Monday it is settling lawsuits challenging race-based admissions at West Point and the Air Force Academy.
Students for Fair Admissions, which won the Supreme Court ruling in 2023 banning race-based admission at universities, challenged the policies at military institutions, which were left off the high court’s decision two years ago.
“This Department is committed to eliminating DEI practices throughout the federal government,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi, using an abbreviation for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). “We are proud to partner with the Department of Defense to permanently end race-based admissions at West Point and the Air Force Academy — admission to these prestigious military institutions should be based exclusively on merit.”
