Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced the termination of $54M in radical DEI and green agenda grants at the Department of Transportation.

The seven university grants focus on decarbonization, gender safety, and pollution exposure.

The Daily Wire exclusive shared:

WASHINGTON—The Department of Transportation is terminating $54 million worth of recently-discovered “woke university grants,” The Daily Wire has learned, arguing that the grants advanced radical agendas that ran counter to the department’s mission.

Seven schools received grants which Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy told The Daily Wire were advancing a “radical DEI and green agenda” that is wasteful and counter to the Trump administration’s priorities.

“The American people have zero interest in millions of their tax dollars funding research on the intersection of gender non-conforming people and infrastructure inequality or whether road improvement projects are racist,” Duffy added. “It’s time to inject a dose of reality back into our higher education system, and that starts with ending these wasteful and divisive grants.”

The Transportation Department told The Daily Wire that under theSan Jose State University’s Mineta Consortium for Emerging, Efficient, and Safe Transportation, $6M was earmarked for research on “intermodal inequities, particularly how improvements to auto travel can benefit higher income, often white drivers, while depressing transit ridership potential and depriving it of revenues necessary to provide comprehensive services to lower income, often BIPOC people and research into using crowdsourcing and collaborative planning to address safety concerns of women and gender non-conforming people using public transportation.”

Secretary Duffy underscored the Department’s new focus, telling DW, “The previous administration turned the Department of Transportation into the Department of Woke.”

“I’ve focused the Department on what matters; safety, making travel great again, and building big, beautiful infrastructure projects.”
