"The federal #US Equal Opportunity Employment Commission (#EEOC) drops a demand that the #UniversityofPennsylvania provide federal investigators with a list of #Jews on the #campus.
The EEOC, during an investigation into alleged #antisemitism on the #IvyLeague campus, had demanded a list of #Jewish faculty, staff and students, along with personal identifying information.
The investigators said they needed the information to contact Jews and investigate antisemitism on the campus.
Jewish groups on the campus said that, while they supported efforts to rein in antisemitism, the “compelled cataloging of Jews” has historically been dangerous."

The #Trump admin wants to stop collecting data on employment discrimination, making it much harder to enforce laws against employment discrimination.
https://apnews.com/article/eeoc-discrimination-dei-andrea-lucas-2f521d784a9d0376416499066dc9f178"How many women hold executive-level positions at top U.S. companies? What is the racial and ethnic breakdown of those roles? What is the gender and racial breakdown of the lowest-paid roles at those companies? The Trump administration is making it harder for the public to know, moving to toss aside a 60-year-old requirement for tens of thousands of private sector employers to submit workforce demographic reports each year to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission."
PS: Individuals could still sue for employment discrimination. But without data to show "patterns and practices", it's very hard to show intent or shift the burden of proof to the employer.

The #EEOC’s #NEA case is part of an expansion of the #Trump administration’s antisemitism investigations beyond college and K-12 campuses. Last week the U.S. Health and Human Services Department opened its own probe into the #American #Psychological Association, also based on a Brandeis Center complaint.

In a former life I was something of a (small e) expert in labor movement strategy and giving the Trump admin ammunition to witch hunt you is just bad decision-making. This was completely foreseeable and totally avoidable.

In one of O’Brien’s recent Times stories, she reported on how employees at Lucas’s #EEOC have faced pressure to bring—or keep alive—cases against white men, even when the evidence seems weak. In one case, “employees had to justify abandoning the case of a white man who said he was the victim of #discrimination because he didn’t get a job,” O’Brien wrote. “The job, the office’s review found, went to another white man, and all the other applicants were also white men.”

The [formerly] “Equal” Employment Opportunity Commission [#EEOC] has been pursuing an inquiry into potential workplace #discrimination against #Jewish faculty & staff at #Penn, a #school in Philadelphia, since 2023. While #university officials said they welcomed the investigation, they balked last year after the government issued a subpoena seeking names & phone numbers for members of #Jewish groups on campus.

FYI: This article is from last month, posting for signal.
"The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has voted 2–1 to rescind its 2024 enforcement guidance, which expanded interpretations of workplace protections for LGBTQ workers and individuals seeking reproductive care.
"The revised policy was repealed on January 22, 2026, following a change in the commission’s membership that gave Republicans a 2–1 majority.
"The 2024 guidance, which was not binding law but offered detailed examples of how anti-discrimination protections apply, had built on the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2020 ruling in Bostock v. Clayton County, which recognized that Title VII’s ban on sex discrimination covers sexual orientation and gender identity

The #EEOC, born of the #CivilRights Act to enforce laws against employment discrimination, said it was investigating “systemic allegations of #DEI related intentional race discrimination” against #white employees & job applicants at #Nike.
The investigation is the first major litigation announced by the commission under Andrea Lucas, its chair, who has made DEI programs a target since taking the role last year.

From AP News..com: Workplace rights agency scraps anti-harassment guidance, citing Trump's orders

Update. Yesterday #UPenn filed a 163-page brief in federal court condemning the #Trump admin demand for a list of #Jews at the institution as “extraordinary and unconstitutional".
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/us/university-of-pennsylvania-trump-jewish-staff.html"The #EEOC insists that Penn produce this information without the consent — and indeed, over the objections — of the employees impacted while entirely disregarding the frightening and well-documented history of governmental entities that undertook efforts to identify and assemble information regarding persons of Jewish ancestry. The government’s demand implicates Penn’s substantial interest in protecting its employees’ privacy, safety and First Amendment rights."

The EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) is actively seeking out white males who feel they have experienced discrimination.
The commissioner, a "vocal" DEI critic, even posted call-out(s) on social media.

Waaaah! Someone took my unearned privilege away!!
#Trump said in an interview that he believed #CivilRights era protections resulted in #white people being “very badly treated,” his strongest indication that the concept of “reverse discrimination” is driving his aggressive crusade against diversity policies.
Speaking to NYT…, Trump echoed #grievances amplified by VP #JDVance & other top officials who in recent weeks have urged white men to file federal complaints with the #EEOC.

Update. The Trump admin is demanding a list of Jewish faculty, staff, and students at #UPenn.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/13/upenn-trump-jews-listTrump's #EEOC asked for the list last July. Penn refused, and the EEOC sued the university in November. What's new is that several groups just filed a motion in federal court to intervene in the lawsuit on the side of the university -- the American Association of University Professors (#AAUP, national and UPenn chapters), the American Academy of Jewish Research, the UPenn Jewish Law Students Association, the UPenn Association of Senior and Emeritus Faculty.
From #StevenWeitzman, UPenn prof of religious studies and past member of its antisemitism taskforce: “Part of what sets off alarm bells for people like me is a history of people using Jewish lists against Jews. The Nazi campaign against Jews depended on institutions like universities handing over information about their Jewish members to the authorities.”

Are you an incompetent white male who depends on privilege for your unearned advantages? Did someone hurt your widdle fee fees by accurately pointing out that you‘re incompetent? Have no fear, we‘re useless privileged losers just like you!

As previously reported, the #EEOC even moved to dismiss its own active lawsuits against companies that had been credibly accused of discriminating against #trans & #nonbinary workers. Seawright’s complaint says that the EEOC’s internal non-discrimination & inclusion policy regarding gender identity & sexual orientation, which has existed since at least 2009, was also rescinded by Lucas.
-
“The conditions of my employment have continued to deteriorate & I expect they will become worse as Acting Chair Lucas takes further steps to discriminate against #transgender employees,” his complaint said.
Meanwhile, elsewhere at the agency, #EEOC staff were instructed to stop processing complaints from workers alleging #LBGTQ+ #discrimination.
-
Seawright’s complaint is not only about what he was instructed to do at work, but also about what he was prevented from doing amid the #EEOC’s efforts to “marginalize me & my role.” Among other things, he says he was booted from network systems he needed to do his job & left off meeting invitations about initiatives he was supposed to be leading.
