Full article. I don't think Trump is likely to withdraw the order, nor should he. Instead, companies should cease training that promotes race or sex-stereotyping or scapegoating.

Or the companies can simply move away from the taxpayer funded trough.

So. Simple solution. Don’t apply for federal contracts. Have all the BS victim training you like.

As soon as I saw the US Chamber of Communists is a part of this you can presume that the remainder of these “groups” and “businesses” are leftist NWO and profoundly anti-MAGA.

Trump should file that letter in the circular file for consideration in 5 years.

chilling effect on legitimate diversity training
BS there is No such thing as "legitimate diversity training" every bit of it is Racist, Divisive and is meant to Divide people into groups and pit them against each other. Divide and Conquer. All these RACIST Assholes should be purged from society and sent to Syria to build their own little Utopia.

See what happens when you lower taxes on people like this which is what we have been doing for the last 40 years.

What is SO GOOD about diversity!??!?!
My neighborhood is about 90 percent descendants of Italians.
We love everybody that moves here.
But we have some customs and traditions in common.
And we are VERY PROUD Americans.
de blasio HATES that we are not diversified.
But he hasn’t been able to build a project yet on the south shore.
I hope we keep winning that battle.

It’s like the airlines wanting the government to do the screening at airports. Took them off the hook. Look what it got us(THEM). Then there’s health care. The HMO’s were in favor of guess what? Guaranteed they’d get paid. Security for freedom. We get neither.

To: karpov
There is nothing ambiguous or difficult to understand in Trump’s order. The Chamber of Commerce is just doing virtue signalling to the BLM and those pushing Critical Race Theory in the hopes they can buy those groups off which never works.

IIRC, the order in question was to eliminate “critical race theory” (highly racist), but not all sensitivity training. It’s mentioned in the article, but dismissed quickly.

“...complaints from employees who may be disgruntled ...”
There are always disgruntled employees whining about one thing or another. Handling complaints is one of the jobs of a personnel manager and his staff. You give into every employee complaint and your company will go down the drain.
I administered the union contract for a few years in our company. The union was always filing complaints seeking a favorably ruling to win, in that manner, what they couldn’t win in contract negotiations.

Yes. Everything dealing with these topics should be eliminated.
