WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) introduced the Restoring Lethality Act, which eliminates the existence of DEI-related requirements within the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD). Senator Tuberville has been leading the charge to eliminate Biden-era woke policies from the Pentagon and ensure the military is solely focused on lethality and readiness. Last year, Senator Tuberville successfully killed all DEI funding from the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), and this bill would ensure it stays dead.
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris treated the Pentagon like a trial run for their latest DEI initiatives,” said Senator Tuberville.“Thankfully, President Trump and Secretary Hegseth are working around the clock to eradicate this poisonous ideology from the military, but there’s still more to be done. We have to make sure zero taxpayer dollars go towards this divisive propaganda that distracts from the core mission of the military: to protect the security of the United States.”
