Brendan Carr, President-elect Donald Trump's choice for chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has promised to end the agency's promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies as part of his agency.

"The FCC's most recent budget request said that promoting DEI was the agency's second-highest strategic goal. Starting next year, the FCC will end its promotion of DEI," Carr said.

Carr, top Republican on the FCC currently, also vowed to breakup the "censorship cartel," which includes big tech companies like Google and Apple.

"We must dismantle the censorship cartel and restore free speech rights for everyday Americans," he wrote on X.

"Commissioner Carr is a warrior for free speech and has fought against the regulatory lawfare that has stifled Americans' freedoms and held back our economy," Trump said. "He will end the regulatory onslaught that has been crippling America's job creators and innovators and ensure that the FCC delivers for rural America."
