How much is spent on DEI administration at Utah’s public colleges and universities? I broke down the numbers. The big takeaway: It's less than half of a percent of the operating budget at any public institution of higher education in the state. sltrib.com/news/education…

Today we will be discussing H.B. 257 in the House Business and Labor Committee at 2pm. This bill is detrimental to the transgender community. Live stream at this link: le.utah.gov/av/nowPlaying.…

A new record. The Utah legislature made me cry (sad and angry tears) on Day 2 at their efforts to strip DEI from Utah universities, K-12 & Utah's governmental entities. They do it with nice words about equality, opportunity & getting rid of racism. But the bill doesn't do that.

From the gospel stories it's quite evident to me that what made #Jesus unique was that he was his most authentic self. Profound! And that goes for you too! ❤️

I’m not sure how Hamas or anyone else can justify holding a one-year-old baby as a hostage. Shocking and awful. Release Kfir Bibas. Release the hostages. Don’t harm civilians.

Rep. Barbara Lee: “I was walking to the Capitol and a man stopped me, a white guy, and told me I could not get into the members’ elevator...He told me it was for members only. I said, 'Sir, I’m a member of Congress' and showed him my pin. And he said, 'Whose pin did you steal?'"

Yesterday I had the opportunity to speak with constituents about the importance of diverse voices in higher ed. HB 261 would eliminate DEI departments within publicly funded universities. This would not only be a huge step backward but would continue to perpetuate hate and fear.

If you voted for this, I have lost all trust and respect in you as a political leader. You’ve made the noble and necessary fight for equality and inclusivity harder, so we will just have to fight back harder. This is disgraceful. Your hearts are failing you. #utleg

Bad laws that will likely make college life more difficult for at least one of my kids. Not to mention the other garbage being floated. If you voted for it, you will never get a vote from me again.

The Utah Legislature today: (1) No DEI. It’s evil; (2) we hate the Transgender. Then they wonder why do they have rampant racism in their schools, and everyone thinks they’ve bigots? but keep Utah weird right? Or white and straight but the Governor can’t say that.

I can’t bear this hateful energy. Policing ho, when, and where a person can use a restroom-a physical need-and to do so with such shame and disgusting false labels…this is trauma. This is abuse. The Jack asses that say it’s about pedos are liars or idiots.

anti-trans bill passes the House in a landslide. can't imagine the senate or governor have the insight or knowledge to stop it from becoming law, so as with indiana we'll be relying on the courts to strike down this anti-constitutional act of discrimination.

The Salt Lake Tribune All of the trolls here to repeat the same nonsense about how DEI is discriminatory. Diversity Equity and Inclusion are the opposite of discriminatory, DEI gives everyone a seat at the table, as it should be. #HumanBetter #Utah

I'm very disappointed in the Utah legislature today. The anti-Trans and DEI bills they passed codify blatant discrimination and clearly show Utah's unabashed bigotry. Yet another reason I will never again choose to live in that state.

Can you see how equity in classrooms fulfills individual and societal needs to achieve true freedom and equality as a whole? If you hate on equity, you don’t really want equality, because the current system still benefits you more. ie not equal. I see your true colors.
