Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth referred to two U.S. military bases by their former names, signaling a shift in Pentagon policy to eliminate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. Speaking at the Pentagon, Hegseth stressed a focus on warfighting, calling the renaming of bases a “political agenda.” His remarks reflect the administration’s effort to remove DEI policies, prioritizing merit-based recruitment and training. Supporters praised the move as a return to military tradition, while critics argued it undermines inclusion. Civil rights groups warned it could impact recruitment. As the Pentagon reviews DEI programs, Congress is set for a debate over defense funding, with Democrats defending DEI initiatives and Republicans advocating for a return to traditional standards.
