Trump DOJ to Criminally Investigate Companies with DEI Programs
Attorney General Pam Bondi issued multiple memos outlining new DOJ policies, including reviving the death penalty, targeting sanctuary cities, and enforcing a return-to-office mandate. A particularly striking memo targets private sector Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) initiatives, potentially subjecting them to criminal investigation. This action, based on a dubious interpretation of the *Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard* ruling, threatens First Amendment rights by suppressing speech and association related to DEIA. The memo directs investigations and potential criminal penalties against companies with DEIA programs, potentially leading to immediate legal challenges.
