Chicago Police Department Hit with Civil Rights Complaint for Race-Based Hiring Practices Meant to Address 'Systemic Inequities'
DEI will not just DIE.
Despite the efforts of President Donald Trump and the Supreme Court, diversity, equity, and inclusion practices are still in vogue for the bluest parts of the country, including Chicago.
The Chicago Police Department had a civil rights complaint filed against it Tuesday by America First Legal, alleging the CPD is engaged in race-based practices for hiring and enforcement.
Fox News obtained the complaint, where the AFL places blame on the Office of Equity and Racial Justice under Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. The office's purpose is to "develop and coordinate the implementation and maintenance" of "racial equity action plans." Other city departments have their own similar programs.
AFL counsel Alice Kass wrote in the complaint, "Chicago is disguising its discriminatory actions under the pretext of 'racial equity,' openly defying federal civil rights laws and Executive Orders issued by President Donald J. Trump," adding, "Bureaucrats have embedded 'equity' principles throughout the Chicago government, including in the CPD, where race is a central consideration in recruitment, hiring, promotion, and retention decisions."
