Trump's diversity training order faces lawsuit
Read full article: Trump's diversity training order faces lawsuitNEW YORK – Three civil rights groups filed a lawsuit Thursday challenging President Donald Trump's executive order that prohibits federal agencies, contractors and grant recipients from offering certain diversity training that the president deems “anti-American." The lawsuit argued that Trump's order violates free speech rights and strangles workplace attempts to address systemic race and sex discrimination. The National Urban League and the National Fair Housing Alliance both have federal contracts and plan to apply for future ones. Critics say Trump's order twists President Lyndon B. Johnson’s 1965 initiative into vehicle for white grievances. The government has also canceled training programs at the State Department, Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Veteran Affairs.
