Ankit Gupta, a general partner at Silicon Valley startup accelerator Y Combinator, is facing backlash after describing Vice President JD Vance's call for American companies to "hire and train Americans" as a return of "DEI."
"In a win for the woke left DEI is back," Gupta wrote on X.
"No, Ankit. It's called putting your own citizens first," Labor Department Inspector General Anthony D'Esposito wrote, arguing that American companies should prioritize American jobs and workers. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chairman Andrew Ferguson, **** istant Attorney General for the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon, and Nalin Haley, the son of former South Carolina Gov. and U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, also publicly pushed back on Gupta's framing.
Gupta's X post came in response to Vance's call for American corporations to hire and train American workers when they need employees.
