On Wednesday, The Daily Wire<\/a> posted an article the changes the Biden administration has planned for America’s government. According to the article, the changes involve a \u201ctotal transformation of government\u201d \u2014 as described<\/a> by the Department of Energy \u2014 arguably based on principles of Critical Race Theory.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Toward that end, more than 90 federal agencies announced \u201cequity action plans\u201d to supposedly address inequality in American society \u2014 but critics say that the plans will create a coercive bureaucracy intent on punishing certain Americans based on racial marxism and other progressive ideas that champion victimhood.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The White House recently noted<\/a> that on his first day in office, President Joe Biden \u201csigned Executive Order 13985<\/a>, Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government\u201d which \u201cdirected the whole of the federal government to advance an ambitious equity and racial justice agenda\u201d focused on creating \u201cprosperity, dignity, and equality\u201d for underserved communities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ryan Girdusky, founder of 1776 Project PAC, a non-profit focused<\/a> on electing school board members opposed to Critical Race Theory-inspired curriculum, told The Daily Wire that Biden administration\u2019s \u201cplan towards equity is race-based Marxism with a different word.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe entire program is set to lower standards, dilute meritocracy, and have the first large-scale government-supported laws that discriminate against people based on their race since before Eisenhower was President,\u201d Girdusky added.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the Executive Summary:<\/p>\n

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13985 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE EQUITY ACTION PLAN<\/strong>
\nPage 1<\/strong>
\nI. Executive Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Department of Justice\u2019s mission is to \u201cenforce the law and defend the interests of the United States according to the law; to ensure public safety against threats foreign and domestic; to provide federal leadership in preventing and controlling crime; to seek just punishment for those guilty of unlawful behavior; and to ensure fair and impartial administration of justice for all Americans.\u201d As the Attorney General has explained: \u201cAdvancing equal justice under law is a <\/strong>core principle of the Department of Justice. Established during Reconstruction, in the aftermath of the Civil War, the Department\u2019s first mission was to secure the civil rights promised by the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments.\u201d Since then, the Department has continued its foundational work of ensuring that no individuals are denied the freedoms and protections guaranteed by the Constitution.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since January 20, 2021, the Department has taken many steps to advance equity for marginalized and underserved communities.1 The Department has prioritized five action items to further advance that work:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A. leveraging federal funds provided by the Department to (a) encourage grantees to include equity considerations in the provision of federally funded services, (b) enhance data collection<\/span> to identify and take action to address disparities in access to the Department\u2019s programs or services based on demographic factors, and (c) better ensure that grantees are complying with non-discrimination mandates;<\/strong>
\nB. improving access to funding opportunities for organizations that are led by, or primarily serve, historically marginalized and underserved populations<\/span>;<\/strong>
\nC. reducing language barriers that make it difficult for individuals with limited<\/strong>
\nEnglish proficiency to access Department programs or activities, communicate public safety concerns, or vindicate their rights;<\/strong>
\nD. improving the Department\u2019s engagement with stakeholders in underserved communities and disadvantaged groups in order to establish enduring relationships with them and enhancing the public\u2019s awareness of the Department\u2019s expansive mission and resources; and<\/strong>
\nE. increasing opportunities for small businesses located in Historically Underutilized Business Zones to secure Department contracts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Department believes each of these action items will substantially advance equity and civil rights and, further, will promote public safety by increasing trust and communication between the Department and the communities it serves.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Notice that I have underlined ‘enhance data collection.’ That is never a good thing. Also note that funding is going to improve for certain organizations. You can bet that organizations similar to ACORN and Black Lives Matter will be in line for that funding and pro-life groups or conservative groups will not.<\/p>\n

This is an executive order–it is not a law. It is a shame that executive orders can be used to create major changes in our government. That fact needs to be discussed and possibly changed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
