ALT A social media text image, with the California Foundation Independent Living Centers Logo. A headline reads “Statement Against Politicization of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA).” The excerpt of text reads: “… By suggesting that the inclusion of qualified individuals with disabilities in the federal workforce compromises safety, the president is perpetuating harmful and dangerous stereotypes. These remarks undermine decades of hard-fought progress toward equity, opportunity, and inclusion for people with disabilities. Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) is about ensuring that all individuals—including those with disabilities—are hired based on their qualifications and abilities, not their perceived limitations. Any attempt to scapegoat marginalized communities in moments of national tragedy is reprehensible and must be met with unequivocal condemnation. …”
