According to a new op-ed from former White House lawyer Daniel Huff, DEI in the airline industry is still putting thousands of people in danger.
His analysis of every plane crash caused by pilot error since the year 2000 revealed something insane:
President Trump ordered the DOT to end its DEI practices early in his presidency, but that has not stopped airlines from continuing to engage in the practice. According to Huff’s report:
Delta CLO Peter Carter declared in January 2025 that the airline is ‘steadfast’ in its DEI commitments, calling them ‘critical to our business.’
United’s training academy maintains its goal of ensuring 50% of graduates are women or minorities.
Southwest still pledges to ‘recruit, hire, and retain a diverse and inclusive workforce.’
American agreed not to impose illegal quotas, but that leaves plenty of wiggle room.
Not to mention the Air Traffic Controller crisis “About 90% of airport towers across the country are currently understaffed, according to an analysis from CBS News.” Interestingly DEI practice trumped White men and caused a shortage of inclusion.
no way! this cant be true! you mean those who couldnt make it without some type of special accomdation might actually put us at a higher risk of death! thank heavens the medical schools dont do this, or wait……do they?
Companies will eventually learn that the best qualified worker will make them the most profit and the least amount of costly mistakes. Until then they will be continually pushed around by dei policy.
