The Washington Post editorial board praised U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi<\/a> Wednesday for rolling back a woke doctrine at the Department of Justice.<\/p>\n

The board\u2019s column defended Bondi\u2019s move, saying that the legal doctrine of “disparate impact” she dismantled had encouraged institutions that receive DOJ grants to have a problematic focus on race.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“But if a future Democratic administration wants to recommit to woke politics, it will still have many tools at its disposal,” the board wrote<\/a>. “One of them is the legal doctrine of \u2018disparate impact,\u2019 which encourages companies, universities and state and local governments to fixate on race and ethnicity to a fault.”<\/p>\n

The Post explained how disparate impact stretched the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and its target of intentional discrimination “to the point of incoherence.”<\/p>\n

“It says that different average outcomes among groups \u2014 even if there was no intent to discriminate \u2014 can still be a civil rights violation. Institutions that receive Justice Department grants have been regulated according to this standard, prohibited from doing anything that has the \u2018effect\u2019 of creating disparities among groups,” the board said.<\/p>\n

In Bondi\u2019s document<\/a> rescinding the doctrine, she argued that it had subjected DOJ grant recipients to penalties under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act even for “unintentional disparate outcomes, which the recipient may not even know about without investigation.”<\/p>\n

As the Post noted, this previous framework would encourage certain institutions to classify their employees and students based on race and, in some cases, “impose racial preferences” to meet quotas to avoid “unequal conditions.”<\/p>\n

“In some circumstances, those preferences were mandated,” the editorial board said.<\/p>\n

The Post added Bondi\u2019s quote that the doctrine “seems to both forbid and require the same conduct.”<\/p>\n

Bondi\u2019s move followed President Donald Trump\u2019s executive order<\/a> in April mandating the elimination of “the use of disparate-impact liability in all contexts to the maximum degree possible to avoid violating the Constitution, Federal civil rights laws, and basic American ideals.”<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s order<\/a> said disparate impact “holds that a near insurmountable presumption of unlawful discrimination exists where there are any differences in outcomes in certain circumstances among different races, sexes, or similar groups, even if there is no facially discriminatory policy or practice or discriminatory intent involved, and even if everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed.”<\/p>\n

The Post editorial board also rebuffed critics who claim that Bondi\u2019s directive somehow opens the door for more discrimination.<\/p>\n

“Claims that these revisions somehow authorize discrimination are bogus. They do the opposite. Purposely treating one group differently than another remains illegal, as it should.”<\/p>\n

The board added, “Intent matters. Otherwise, the federal government has a free-floating license to zealously police the racial composition of private institutions. Some of the Trump administration\u2019s anti-woke agenda has been irresponsible, but this is a reasonable correction to past overreach.”<\/p>\n

When asked for comment, a DOJ spokesperson pointed Fox News Digital to a press release<\/a> on Bondi’s order.<\/p>\n

A portion of it stated, “The Department\u2019s new rule reflects the best reading of Title VI, as the Supreme Court has repeatedly recognized for over twenty years. Title VI has and will continue to prohibit intentional discrimination. The Department\u2019s new rule ensures that recipients of federal funding will be judged on their actual conduct, not on statistical outcomes or circumstances beyond their control.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
