Elected and federally appointed officials aren’t the only ones making government more diverse and inclusive. A new government survey has revealed that more than 38% of people working on the Democratic side of the Senate also identify as non-Caucasian.
CNN’s Daniella Diaz and Ali Zaslav have reported on the survey, which revealed that “38.3% of Democratic Senate staffers identify as non-Caucasian, a 3.5 percentage-point increase from last year.”
According to Diaz and Zaslav, “the survey found that Senate offices with the most diversity in their staffers were those of Sens. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii (73%), Ben Ray Luján of New Mexico (71%) and Raphael Warnock of Georgia (70%).”
