US EditionCivil rights agency’s acting chair to face questions on anti-DEI, transgender stances
- Andrea Lucas, acting chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, will face a Senate committee hearing Wednesday on her leadership and enforcement priorities.
- Lucas became acting chair in January after firing two Democratic commissioners before their terms ended, following President Trump's directives limiting diversity, equity, and inclusion enforcement.
- Under Lucas, the EEOC paused many cases by transgender plaintiffs, moved to dismiss a 2024 racial discrimination suit against Sheetz, and shifted focus away from disparate impact claims.
- Lucas stated the agency will comply with Trump’s DEI orders, backing away from cases involving neutral policies with unequal racial or sex outcomes, while critics call this a retreat from the agency’s historic mission.
- If confirmed by the Republican-controlled Senate, Lucas is expected to revisit harassment and Pregnant Workers Fairness Act guidance, signaling a change in enforcement affecting gender-diverse and pregnant workers.
