If you look at Cruz's the spreadsheet you'll see that there are DEI categories for the grants and they don't match the OP's complaints (which posits they're included for sex or race keywords).

The first one is labeled with "STATUS" & "JUSTICE" and the grant says: THIS PROJECT ALSO INCLUDES A PLAN TO CREATE VARIOUS EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH EXPERIENCES FOR UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY STUDENTS TO PROMOTE DIVERSITY IN THE WORKFORCE.

The second is labeled with "STATUS" and the grant says: STUDENTS FROM UNDERREPRESENTED GROUPS IN STEM FIELDS ARE ALSO A KEY FOCUS

The third is labeled with "JUSTICE" and the grant says: ... WILL EMBED ITS DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION PRACTICES INTO ITS EVERYDAY RESEARCH ACTIVITIES...

Literally every grant I click through has similar text in it.
