From the Washington Times:

according to the Office of Personnel Management, federal employees in fiscal 2010 were 66.2 percent white, 17.7 percent black, 8 percent Hispanic, 5.6 percent Asian and Pacific Islander and 1.8 percent American Indian. Compared to the general U.S. population, the federal force is a bit too diverse. Blacks are overrepresented by 6.9 percent compared to the civilian work force, Asians and Pacific Islanders by 1.2 percent, and American Indians are more than double their proportion of the population at large. White Americans, who make up about 70 percent of the work force, are underrepresented by around 4 percent. Hispanics are also underrepresented despite the Clinton-era executive order 13171, “Hispanic Employment in the Federal Government.”

As it is whites are already underrepresented, guess the government will go on a hire whites only binge.

True in general but as for specific agencies it is not. Hispanics make up over 50% of the US Border Patrol.

Here in the DC area, where the most bloated Government paychecks reside, blacks make up about 65% of the Federal workforce.
