The Biden administration is facing some scrutiny over a proposal to change the way it racially/ethnically classifies federal employees.
At the moment, anyone of Middle Eastern or North African descent only has the option of identifying/being classified as “white.”
Were the administration’s proposal to be approved, these individuals would instead have the option of identifying as Middle Eastern or North African.
The proposal would accomplish this by rewriting the Office of Management and Budget 1997 Statistical Policy Directive No. 15: Standards for Maintaining, Collecting, and Presenting Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity (SPD 15).
Here's a better idea: Drop all classifications by race. They are employees. Period.

Little trivia: the federal government was completely desegregated until Democrat Woodrow Wilson imposed segregation (along with brining back the KKK).
He ran on a platform of equality for blacks and won a majority of black support by promising free stuff, a platform which remains a plank of the Democrat Party today.
Look what they do; not what they say.

Beyond your own close circle of family and friends, what race we are is a distinction of no matter, except to use such information to further divide us. #1 is right of course, but it will not serve the agenda.

The only requirement should be they have the experience, education and skills necessary to be qualified for the position. Diversity hiring results in what we are seeing daily from the Biden administration which is total incompetence in every department. Defense Fail
Homeland Insecurity Triple Fail
Transportation Fail
Education Fail
FAA Fail
White House Communications Double Fail
Fed Fail
They are a colorful bunch of losers kind of like Clowns!

When did ETHNIC groups get classified as separate races?

It's a pretty odd decision actually but not for the obvious reasons.
If not classified as white then there are fewer whites in government so they can't complain as loudly about lack of non-white representation in jobs. It will reduce the number of working whites in their statistics.
This is contrary to their political goals. Not very bright.

The Biden Administration seems to have many divisive obsessions. Reply #1 is most in accordance with the Constitution and content of character.

It's all about favoritism for 'whites' from the Middle East and North America. Are they all Muslim?

It sounds like: if you want to retain your white privilege, get yourself declared 'off white'. Navajo white works too. Maybe even muslin. Nope...too close to muslim.
That's probably what this is about; middle easterners wanting those privileges, set-asides and handouts that go with being a person of color.

So, is he is planning to replace himself with a slightly brown Jamaican-Indian?
Oh, wait, he said "Federal WORKERS" That leaves Kamala out.

I can understand his sensitivity to these issues as he is seriously conflicted as to his race, religion and next his gender. He was raised by Blacks and attended a Black Church that also had a Puerto Rican congregation while working in the mines while wearing a Burka..

Biden is the most racist President in my lifetime (fully realizing that there are those who can hide it well), and no amount of idiotic schemes he employs to assuage the demons of his own guilt, it won't succeed. We know Dems have a lot to atone for, but this is something to do with God, not with stupid policies which are self-serving and will only cause more strife, division and animosities. They can't undo what their progenitors established or perpetuated, even after the Civil War. Just ask old Senator Byrd, old DEAD Senator Byrd, good friend of Biden and actually all of the Dems (as far as we know).
Biden and Dems and self-righteous leftists could start the cleansing process by refusing positions in private schools, prep schools, elite colleges and universities, and jobs, political appointments, judgeships, etc. IF, if if they are "white". This is what they advocate, in essence, right? Republicans are the children of those who freed the slaves and forced the end of Jim Crow, segregation.

#6, the "races" started out referring to what we would call ethnic groups.
In the 1800s and early to mid-1900s, you'd find lots of references to groups such as the "English Race" or the "Irish Race" or the "Italian Race", etc. Then they started grouping people by regions, so you had the "Mediterranean Race", "Nordic Race, "Alpine Race", etc. Then in the mid-1900s, they came up with six groups based on blood groups. Looks like we are now reverting to race as ethnic group.
Now, what happens when they have defined "white" until it only refers to only those people with light skin and ancestry the largest of the British islands, which I believe is their unconscious intent. When I was a kid, Spanish and Italian people were not considered "white", so a new category for them. How about categories for the Indian sub-continent and all those blond people in Central Asia, which leads to how can you possibly deride the open-mind Swedes as "white"? And what about the group that has borne so much racism from the people from the main British island, the Irish?"
Are these people truly "white" or are they the victims of the truly "white"?
Once this happens, then the newly-defined "white" people will be a MINORITY. Then what happens with all those quotas and special rules and laws that are there to protect the minorities from the now non-existent majority?
Go for it and pass the popcorn.

Whiteness means fair representative government. (not in Africa) Whiteness means rape is a crime.(not in Africa or Muslim countries) Whiteness means that our laws are based on the Holy Bible.(not it Africa, the Caribbean, the Middle East, or China.)
