Gov. Greg Abbott tells State Agencies to Stop Considering Diversity in Hiring

The politicisation of DEIB is most acute in the US, where it is pretty explicitly a front for culture war. US members please give us greater nuance on my reading, but it appears that the state of Texas may be moving to ban the use of diversity measures in hiring, presumably putting TA / HR to continue to commit to DEIB into murky grey water of illegal discrimination. Will this lead to labour migration on political and cultural lines at some point? Think this needs a Brainfood Live at some point.
