The Biden administration had pushed departments to adopt DEI-based hiring and pay millions to applicants who scored lower on standardized tests.
Bondi, following Trump’s rollback of DEI initiatives, called the lawsuits a threat to public safety, saying hiring should be based on skill—not quotas.
Separately, Bondi announced federal charges against Jamison Wagner for arson at a Tesla dealership and the New Mexico GOP headquarters. The attacks are part of what Bondi calls a rise in domestic terrorism targeting Tesla and GOP sites. She vowed no plea deals, per Trump’s directive.
