A House subcommittee has requested information from the Pentagon as part of an investigation into an upcoming report regarding the impact of the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program in the U.S. military.

In a letter dated May 20 to Gen. Lester Lyles (ret.), chair of the Defense Advisory Committee on Diversity and Inclusion (DACODAI), the Subcommittee on National Security, Border, and Foreign Affairs raised concerns that the Department of Defense’s focus on DEI over mission effectiveness and capability is undermining the nation’s security and safety.
