The goal, she said, was “to keep the EEOC tipped to the left”.
She said she “wanted to do my part to help continue (Obama policies) until we had our successors on board, and I'm glad that I have”.
Yang said she enabled Obama Administration “inclusive policies” and “LGBT protections” deep into the Trump Presidency. LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender.
Her statements were made in an Oct. 2nd, 2017 interview linked here:

She said the other two Obama appointed EEOC Commissioners also stayed on past their terms for the same reason — to keep a Democrat majority on the five-member Commission.
Yang was Senior Trial Attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Employment Litigation Section.
Kil Huh, her husband, is director of the States' Fiscal Health Project at the Pew Charitable Trusts. Before joining Pew, he was director of policy and consulting at the Fannie Mae Foundation.
