How Much Are You Paying for Federal Diversity Training?

The Biden administration spent millions on diversity trainings for federal agencies, including some for the armed forces, in 2023.

Taxpayers were on the hook for the more than $16.3 million the federal government spent on diversity trainings taking place in 2023, according to a government spending database. Past government diversity trainings have instructed federal workers that asking an Asian colleague for help with a math problem could be racist, that men can become pregnant and that “social pain” can be the same as physical pain.

The Air Force, Navy, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), National Park Service, National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense, Department of Education and Department of Veterans Affairs were among the government bodies shelling out millions for diversity trainings.

The Daily Caller News Foundation’s analysis of federal spending only included contracts awarded to third-party diversity training providers or consultants; the cost of in-house training was not included.
