Diversity Thursday

Well, look what we have tucked in the House Armed Services Committee Chairmans’s mark in the FY24 NDAA;
This is how you start things rolling. Follow the money.
Well done by all … but I would offer this - watch the details.
The numbers here are staggering. As we covered almost a decade ago, in just one command it was in the millions of dollars one year.
A good first step … and we’ll see how the Navy’s division of the diversity industry responds to this transparency request.
Demand the details by UIC so the underground can “help” let us know what was not reported correctly.
Nice progress - and again - BZ to those making it happen.
Elections have consequences.
So I wonder if the DEI folks will report honestly? My sense is they will see this as a gleeful opportunity to demonstrate “results”. Funny they can’t read the room, nor understand the tone of the language. Lol. Good.
Yes, right. There are far more non-cost related impacts to consider, as well, as we heard yesterday from a Space Force Lt Gen about personnel assignments related to laws passed by state legislatures. This is not the first, having had a NAVSEA leader offer comment regarding laws passed by a legislature in “one of the several states”. I wonder if service members who are committed to the Second Amendment may be exempt from assignment in California- especially if not able to live on base? Whatever policy fixes we may see, the culture is deeply damaged and will be much harder to recover. We have given away service over self to identity over all.
