Скачать или смотреть OPM launches email to report DEI initiatives; Trump nominates Kratsios as OSTP director | TDSP

The Office of Personnel Management has created a new email account meant to collect reports of suspected diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, one of a series of moves the Trump administration has taken to slash DEI efforts across the federal workforce. According to a Jan. 21 memo available online, OPM directed agencies — which are now engaged in the process of shutting down diversity initiatives — to collect reports of any efforts to disguise such initiatives. The memo states that the administration is aware of efforts by some in government to disguise DEI programs by using coded or imprecise language, calling for anyone aware of a change in any contract description or personnel position description since November 5, 2024 to obscure the connection between the contract and DEI or similar ideologies to report all “facts and circumstances” to the email account [email protected] within 10 days. Failure to report such activities could result in “adverse consequences,” the memo notes.

The White House sent Michael Kratsios’s nomination to direct the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy to the Senate on Wednesday, formally beginning his confirmation process. Kratsios was chief technology officer during the first Trump administration and was most recently managing director at Scale AI, a technology company and defense contractor focused on AI model training data. Sending his nomination to the Senate officially starts the confirmation process and puts him among the first of Trump’s selections officially transmitted to the chamber.
