Giving Voice to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Principles

A Special Order hour organized by Representative Jonathan Jackson and the Congressional Progressive Caucus to speak in support of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. Democratic members argued that DEI efforts give all Americans a fair chance, citing administration cuts to science grants, health research, minority farmer aid, and civil rights programs, and criticized firings of military leaders labeled diversity hires. Members also praised colleagues and spoke about their own districts; no bill or vote was involved.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
