“I personally think that DEI is being used as a divisive political tool that keeps people separated when we should all be working together,” Webb remarked. “And I think Gov. (Mike) Kehoe is simply just following Trump’s lead. I don’t believe he has had enough time to look at the data to make an informed decision.”
