President Donald Trump selected Andrea Lucas, a staunch critic of the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) agenda, to serve as the acting chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the government body empowered to prosecute corporate discrimination.
Lucas, who has served as a commissioner on the EEOC since 2020 before her appointment by Trump to be its acting chair, pledged to enforce laws barring discrimination, including discrimination motivated by the DEI agenda.
“I am honored to be chosen by President Trump to lead the EEOC, our nation’s premier civil rights agency enforcing federal employment antidiscrimination laws.
