with the goal of ending diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the federal government and beyond hasaround the future of ERGs. Here is some information about starting, participating in or evaluating the groups at your company:

The Equal Employment Opportunities Commission released guidance in March which said that limiting membership in ERGs to workers covered by anti-discrimination laws, such as only women or people of a particular race, can be considered unlawful segregation.To comply with the EEOC’s interpretation, employers should ensure workplace groups are open to all employees.“They want to make sure these programs are not offering some tangible benefit to one group of employees at the expense of another,” said Infinito Associates CEO Kevin England, whose consulting group helps organizations start ERGs.

If an ERG offers mentorship or opportunities only to people who identify as a member of a legally protected class, “you absolutely do need to open that up,” said David Glasgow, executive director of the Meltzer Center for Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging at NYU School of Law.Some employee resource groups organized around an identity create separate email lists for members who share the identity and members who describe themselves as allies. Glasgow advises against doing that. “It raises the question of what you’re excluding people from,” he said.

The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, a conservative public interest law firm and policy organization, has received dozens of complaints from employees who felt excluded from their workplace ERGs, according to Deputy Counsel Dan Lennington.

During a speech to a huge crowd Trzaskowski laid out his vision for a Poland that is inclusive and vowed to work to help develop Polish industry as the nation continues an economic transformation into a regional economic and military power.In another part of Warsaw, Karol Nawrocki, 42, addressed his supporters. A conservative historian and former boxer, Nawrocki is backed by the national conservative Law and Justice party, which governed Poland from 2015 to 2023. He heads the state-run Institute of National Remembrance, which under Law and Justice became known for promoting nationalist versions of Polish history.

His supporters describe him as the embodiment of traditional, patriotic values — a man who, like U.S. President Donald Trump, promises to restore what they call “normality.” Many voiced opposition to abortion andrights, saying Nawrocki reflects the values they grew up with.
