DoD announces new Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Committee
 
SEPTEMBER 23, 2022 LIZ GEORGE
 
 
President Joe Biden’s Department of Defense announced on Friday a new Defense Advisory Committee on Diversity and Inclusion. Composed of civilian men and women, the committee will “provide advice and recommendations on matters and policies relating to the improvement of racial/ethnic diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunity within the Department with a primary focus on military personnel.”

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin appointed General (Ret.) Lester Lyles to serve as chair of the committee; Lyles said he looks forward to advising Austin on ways to “improve racial/ethnic diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunity as a force multiplier in the military.”
 
The following is the department’s entire news release on the announcement:

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
