Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) Commissioner Andrea Lucas responded to the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling that racial discrimination in college admissions is illegal by predicting that companies are going to get hit with lawsuits over diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs and environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) measures.

Lucas made the remarks after the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the race-based admissions programs at Harvard and the University of North Carolina were both illegal.

“I think this is going to be a wake-up call for employers,” Lucas told Fox News’ “America Reports.” “Today is a time — the best time for lawyers to really take a look at the lawfulness of their corporate diversity programs. Even though many employers don’t use the word affirmative action, it’s rampant today, from ESG, to focuses on equity, pretty much everywhere, there’s a ton of pressure at the corporate 100 across corporate America to take race-conscious decision-making — race-conscious actions in employment law, and that’s been illegal and it’s still illegal.”
