Pentagon Secretly Institutionalized DEI In Its K-12 Public Schools

 During Congressional hearings last spring, Gil Cisneros, then-Under Secretary for Military Readiness, announced that the Pentagon was closing its newly formed Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion within its K-12 school system and reassigning its controversial DEI chief after a ten-month internal investigation.

OpenTheBooks.com filed a FOIA request for the agency payroll just as we have at nearly 13,000 public schools across America.

Stunningly, the DoDEA refused to disclose the individual salaries of its staff, unlike public schools nationwide and almost every other federal agency.

Last spring, at the Congressional hearing, Gil Cisneros announced that the Pentagon was dissolving the DoDEA's DEI department and reassigning its chief.

The Pentagon "Integrated" DEI specialists into "Four key divisions" in the agency last March while also launching a DEI Steering Committee.

Even before EO 14035, Brady strived to inculcate DEI ideology at the agency, announcing on Juneteenth 2020 that DEI must be "Embedded in everything we do."

We have further found that DoD under Secretary Austin is leveraging public record laws to the hilt to prevent parents and the public from knowing details of its efforts, while spending millions of taxpayer dollars on objectionable content for school children.
