Roger Clegg, president and general counsel of the Center for Equal Opportunity in Sterling, Viginia, was invited to speak to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Then the commission decided they'd rather not listen.
Last month, I received an invitation to testify before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission about affirmative action and diversity in U.S. companies. The testimony was scheduled for today, and I was asked to share my written statement to the commission beforehand, last Thursday, which I did. Late Friday afternoon I received a phone call from the commission, telling me that because of what I had to say, my invitation had been withdrawn by its chairman, Cari M. Dominguez.
