Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
This bill would codify into law an executive-order-style prohibition on diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) and DEIA programs across the federal government. It directs OMB, OPM, and the Attorney General to terminate DEI/DEIA offices, positions, programs, contracts, grants, and employee performance requirements, inventory related activities and contractors, assess prior costs and operational impacts, and report progress within 60 days.
Progressives emphasize harm to marginalized groups and civil rights rollback.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a clear substantive directive to terminate DEI/DEIA activities in the executive branch, with concrete identification of responsible officials and short-term deadlines, but it provides only partial operational and legal scaffolding for nationwide implementation.
