Diversity, equity and inclusion programs are shutting down in many corners of the U.S., but some bar associations need an extra nudge. on.wsj.com/4eVijRY
Congratulations to @WILawLiberty & @RickEsenberg - they do such important work ... wsj.com/opinion/wiscon…
"Congratulations to WILL for forcing the issue." High praise on the anti-DEI lawsuit by @WILawLiberty from the Wall Street Journal. wsj.com/opinion/wiscon…
Because the district is unsafe, woke, anti-achievement, and racially discriminatory. And it wastes money. Other than that...
"Open enrollment has been particularly unkind to the Madison School District, which has not seen more students transferring into the district than out since at least 2005... "Over that period, the district has lost a net total of 13,005 students." Via @WiStateJournal
Happy to end DEI at the State Bar on behalf of our great client (and top lawyer) @danielsuhr. We support common sense things like individuality, no stereotypes, and nondiscrimination. Pretty simple yet sometimes controversial. @WILawLiberty @WKOW
DEI: It used to be wrongly called "reverse discrimination," but it's more "make-up discrimination." In an interview about the State Bar settlement, I gave this example, which is how @StateBarofWI was literally treating white male and female students and lawyers. Not any more
Victims of Epstein provided sworn statements & depositions about "uncharged third parties." Victims' names are Virginia Giuffre (deceased), Johanna Sjoberg, Jane Doe #3 & Sarah Ransome. So I am perplexed, again, why USDOJ is saying there is no evidence of third parties.
Statement from @DAGToddBlanche: This Department of Justice does not shy away from uncomfortable truths, nor from the responsibility to pursue justice wherever the facts may lead. The joint statement by the DOJ and FBI of July 6 remains as accurate today as it was when it was…
Wisconsin Bar Association settles to remove DEI from programs justthenews.com/nation/states/… via @JustTheNews
Great news for Wisconsin and a victory for @WILawLiberty — the State Bar of Wisconsin will cease DEI programming and considerations. Discrimination based on race, sex, religion, or other immutable characteristics is an affront to the rule of law. Lawyers should be considered on…
Wisconsin state bar leadership sure doesn't think much of people from northern Wisconsin. From our lawsuit, which ended DEI at the Bar:
Thank you Hannah!!
When our members weren't included in the pistol brace lawsuits' limited-injunction relief, @WILawLiberty stepped in & scored injunctive protection for us as well. I can't speak highly enough of WILL - they're experts in APA challenges of all sorts & do fantastic work for liberty.
The FAA grants racial preferences in how they permit airport concessions (the shops and restaurants in our airports). This is still enforced by @SecDuffy. Interestingly, when FAA created their definition of "Asian-Pacific" they forgot people from Singapore. @FAANews @DOGE_FAA
Wisconsin Public Schools Report Card: Declining enrollment and achievement. Expanding administrative staffs and constant tax increases. Add to that an epidemic of chronic absenteeism. When are parents and taxpayers going to wake up?
⚠️ Wisconsin, we have a problem: student absenteeism. Since the pandemic, we’ve seen a surge in students missing 10%+ of the school year, leading to lower academic success. See where your district stacks up! ⬇️
We are six months into the Trump Administration and his @EPA still presumes that all blacks, Asians, & Hispanics are "disadvantaged." This pernicious stereotype is unconstitutional under SFFA. When is @epaleezeldin going to revoke this regulation? (and others like it) @DOGE_EPA
McKinsey & Co. is a massive consulting firm that receives tens of millions in federal contracts each year. They create & implement race-based management training programs through their "Connected Leaders Academy." They are current federal contractors subject to false claims…
We were pleased to represent @NatlGunRights @TXGunRights and three US Marines in this lawsuit. Details next week from @WILawLiberty
