It's the latest in U.S. President Donald Trump's efforts to terminate such programs within the federal government — and beyond — in what he described in his inauguration speech as a move to end efforts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.” In an email to the city's planning office, dated April 29, the U.S. Embassy in Stockholm asked that Stockholm officials sign a certification that their contractors do not operate any programs promoting DEI that would violate U.S. anti-discrimination law." } }, "facets": [ { "index": { "byteEnd": 149, "byteStart": 75 }, "features": [ { "uri": "https://www.yahoo.com/news/stockholm-city-council-rejects-u-102954630.html", "$type": "app.bsky.richtext.facet#link" } ] } ], "createdAt": "2025-05-09T11:26:08.568239Z" } }
