SUMMARY: President Trump fired two Democratic commissioners of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Charlotte Burrows and Jocelyn Samuels, a move seen as part of his crackdown on diversity and gender rights policies. Both commissioners intend to challenge their dismissals, citing unprecedented undermining of the agency’s independence.
