  US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on January 21, 2025, titled "Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity," with the aim of eliminating race- and sex-based preferences that he argues violate longstanding federal civil-rights laws,

The article from MSN discusses an executive order signed by former President Donald Trump aimed at ending what he described as "diversity discrimination" in both the federal government and the private sector. The order, titled "Executive Order on Combating Race and Sex Stereotyping," was intended to eliminate training programs that Trump believed promoted divisive concepts about race and sex. These programs, according to the order, were seen as portraying the United States as fundamentally racist or sexist, and were accused of fostering division rather than unity. The executive action specifically targeted what it called "race or sex scapegoating" and "race or sex stereotyping," banning such training in federal agencies and by federal contractors. Critics of the order argued that it mischaracterized diversity and inclusion training, which aims to address systemic inequalities and promote understanding among different groups. The order was part of Trump's broader pushback against what he and his supporters viewed as "woke" culture and critical race theory, although it stirred significant controversy and debate over its implications for workplace diversity efforts.
