When AIM President Adam Guillette traveled to North Carolina to confront her directly, she had quietly retired. However, another city official confirmed the scheme, acknowledging that the federal executive order forced only a change in language, not a change in behavior.
That admission matters.
On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed a federal executive order banning radical and wasteful government DEI programs. Winston-Salem officials understood the order and chose to violate it anyway.
They are now on record admitting the ban changed nothing but the labels.
This is deliberate lawbreaking by public officials using taxpayer dollars. It puts federal funding at risk and exposes a culture inside city government that believes it is untouchable.
Accuracy in Media has exposed this pattern before in North Carolina. Winston-Salem is simply the latest city betting that no one will enforce the law.
That is why pressure is necessary.
Go to SaveCarolinaCities.com and send one message directly to Winston-Salem leaders demanding immediate compliance with federal law and accountability for the officials who knowingly broke it.
