Employers are growing concerned about lawsuits amid crackdowns
Story by Andy Medici • 9h

Company leaders are having to navigate a complex regulatory landscape as state and federal regulations diverge on key employment issues.
The Trump administration’s push to end diversity, equity and inclusion efforts within the federal government — and the pressure it's exerted on others to do so as well — has left employers feeling vulnerable to lawsuits.

That’s according to the 13th annual Employer Survey by Littler, an employment and labor law practice representing management. The survey found 85% of employers say changes to workplace regulations and policies around diversity will impact their business in 2025, with 75% saying immigration regulation changes will impact them and 58% saying changes in LGBT protections will impact them.
 
About 63% of employers are worried about discrimination and harassment claims, a share that's unchanged from 2024 but up from 58% who said the same in 2023. However, the share of employers worried about lawsuits related to DEI practices soared to 45% in 2025 — up from 24% in 2024 and 22% in 2023.

The sentiments come on the heels of executive orders from the Trump administration targeting DEI programs within the federal government as well as contractors and grant recipients. President Donald Trump's White House has also targeted law firms and colleges and universities.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Don't base programs on racial, gender, or sexual identity.

Had they hired people on a merit basis, nothing new would be a problem. :shrug:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C S Lewis
