Winston & Strawn partner Kathi Vidal was quoted in a Law360 article discussing how the Trump administration’s actions to remove diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs from the federal government and private sector could undermine one of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s top objectives of expanding access to innovation. Agencies across the government have removed DEI information from their websites following the executive order requiring federal agencies to eliminate “DEI offices and positions” along with “equity action plans, initiatives and programs.” The U.S. Office of Personnel Management told agencies to close offices focused on DEI initiatives by the evening of January 22 and to lay off staffers by January 31.

Kathi Vidal Discusses Trump Administration’s Hiring Freeze and Return to Office Mandate with Law360
Winston & Strawn partner and former U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Director Kathi Vidal spoke with Law360 to discuss President Trump’s executive order mandating employees return to office. In a memo building on the executive order instituting a governmentwide hiring freeze, the Office of Personnel Management said the administration is trying to “increase the efficiency and accountability” of the workforce by calling for a return to in-person work following remote work during the pandemic. The USPTO has a nearly 30-year history of telework, with employees spread across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. As of the 2023 telework report by the USPTO, 99.8% of the agency's positions were eligible for teleworking, and 96.2% of employees were teleworking.
