In Wake of Trump Win, Biden State Department Issued Internal DEI Cable Touting 'Reflection Rooms' and 'All-Gender Restrooms' at US Embassies
The message, Reviewed By The Free Beacon, cites efforts to Create 'affirming' and 'inclusive' workplaces
Two weeks after President-elect Donald Trump’s November election victory, the Biden-Harris State Department issued an internal diplomatic cable that touted sweeping diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives across the agency, including dedicated "reflection rooms" and "all-gender restrooms" at American embassies abroad.
The Nov. 19 cable, issued by outgoing secretary of state Antony Blinken and reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon, is part of a larger Biden administration bid to embed DEI initiatives within the federal government before Trump takes office next year.
In some cases, that's meant rebranding job titles "promoting Diversity, Equity and Inclusion" in an attempt to make them less noticeable to Trump, the Washington Post reported. The State Department's cable, however, is open in its embrace of DEI.
