More good news.
Trump and working Americans win again!
Obama didn’t hire enough Hispanics, therefore Trump is racist.
I’m sure that Andrea Mitchell, Dan Rather, and Chuck Todd will consider this a damning accusation.
If they would, that'd solve the problem without Trump having to fire anyone.
adversely affect diversity
Good! Go Trump!
Diversity , like the Oscars nominations ? LOL
DJT did his part ... workers, your turn. Seeeeee ya.
Awesome.
Why isn’t anyone screaming about the lack of diversity in Latin American or African countries?
Why is it only majority Caucasian countries that are putting up with this crap?
I already know the answer but wanted to put this out there.
GO GO GO
Political correctness dies hard, not without a lot of screeching and flailing.
Government should not reduce workforce merely through attrition. All managers should be required to review and recommend for termination, all marginally performing employees
Government should not be in the business of hiring on the basis of ethnicity, nor should it be counting heads. Wasn’t it “content of character” Their Hero said should only matter?
In principle I agree with reducing the number of Federal employees; it’s been a long time coming.
On the other hand, as an IT contractor who has relied on contracts for work on Gov’t projects I am now faced with an even tighter job market for my skills.
Looks like it’s time to learn a few more!
Easy peazy. All Pres. Trump needs to do is wait for a good snowfall in D. C. The “essential personnel,” who are necessary for the government to function, stay on the payroll. Everyone who can stay home, can be laid off.
Personally, I’ve had quite enough of this ‘diversity’ buzzword and what it denotes, thank you.
Ironically enough, Trump will see to it that Federal diversity (as defined to mean “less white”) actually increases. How? Because the more senior employees tend to include more white people, because they were hired many years ago, when diversity was less of a fetish than it is now. As the older, more white workers retire and are not replaced, boom, what’s left is a more diverse workforce.
Think Trump will get any credit for this?
Obama administration orders a study on Hispanics and diversity TWO DAYS before Trump inauguration. Another setup sure to backfire.
“THANK-YOU” - President TRUMP!
Typical of Leftist / Democrats. It isn’t competency that should be hired...Nooooo... It’s diversity that matters. Trump needs to bust up the Federal Workers Union.
If you have a hundred employees and only one is Hispanic, you can alleviate the lack of diversity by firing 90 or so just as easily as you can by hiring more. Fire them all and the problem goes away.
Hiring freeze / diversity not even close
