A chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer at NASA has been fired despite the space agency appearing to change her title in an attempt to spare her from President Trump’s executive order ending federal DEI initiatives, according to a report.
Neela Rajendra, one-time Chief Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, was terminated this week from her newly minted role as head of the “Office of Team Excellence and Employee Success,” the Washington Free Beacon reported.
“Neela Rajendra is no longer working at [Jet Propulsion Laboratory]. We are incredibly grateful for the lasting impact she made to our organization. We wish her the very best,” a mass email from lab director Laurie Leshin, obtained by the Beacon, stated.
The move comes after the conservative outlet reported that Rajendra evaded the anti-DEI axe in 2024, when nearly 900 DEI employees at the space-faring agency were terminated.

Anytime someone says "DEI is eliminated" you have to remember that it's not being eliminated as much as being re-branded under another, more subtle, name.
DEI is not even close to being dead.

When the first email about removing DEI went out to government employees it had specific language about reporting DEI positions that were moved under other names and departments in order to be hidden.

Those above her that authorized the name change should also be removed as they facilitated the subterfuge.

Can they also be made to pay back the extra money that hiding her cost the US taxpayer?

One of her key accomplishments was leading the Showtime At The Apollo Space Program.

Why would NASA, in 2024, have terminated NINE HUNDRED DEI employees?
That is under Biden's presidency. 900 people fired sounds like a LOT. Where was Judge Boasberg?

This is why Elon had to go get the astronauts. Nasa has to check boxes instead of working on the next space shuttle.

Jesus H...and all of them were doing nothing, or actually harming innovation, using our money.

It’s a lot closer than it was. But the race baiting extortion industry may still pressure companies to keep it alive. I had an applicant for a rental who was a “DEI consultant “. Turned her down because I didn’t think she was going to have much work in that field going forward. Plus I didn’t want to deal with anybody who was in the professional grievance industry.

They should fire whoever was hiding her.
