From an anonymous listener, the Trump administration needs your feedback!
Andrea Lucas, Trump’s acting chair of the equal employment opportunity commission, has asked for help to root out the discrimination of diversity, equity and inclusion festering in America's law firms. The EEOC has established an email where good samaritans can submit information to the EEOC about potentially unlawful DEI practices at law firms: lawfirmDEI@eeoc.gov
