And 19 more affected sections...
Prohibits a wide range of federal diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility (DEI/A) programs, trainings, offices, and related funding across the executive branch, federal contracts, grants, advisory committees, and higher education accreditation. It requires agencies to close or change DEI offices and programs, forbids specified trainings and use of federal funds for many DEI activities, restricts contract and grant terms, limits accreditor and Department of Education actions tied to DEI, and creates civil liability with monetary penalties and injunctive relief for violations.
The measure also rescinds or blocks certain executive orders and memoranda, adds new personnel-protection and anti‑racist provisions to federal personnel law, tasks OPM/OMB and other agency officials with implementation duties and rulemaking, and imposes compliance and enforcement requirements on agency heads and the Administrator for Federal advisory committees. It preserves some narrow exceptions (traditional EEO/ADA offices, HBCUs, and certain historical functions) but broadly curtails federal DEI activities and creates litigation exposure for agencies, contractors, grant recipients, accrediting bodies, and advisory committees.
