Removes and repeals multiple Department of Defense authorities, positions, and requirements related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). It eliminates or revises statutory references to DoD DEI offices and programs (including the Chief Diversity Officer and several DEI-related statutory provisions and NDAA provisions) and narrows required human‑relations training language.
Repeals 10 U.S.C. 147, the statutory provision establishing the Chief Diversity Officer of the Department of Defense and prescribing related duties and authorities.
Amends 10 U.S.C. 573(b) by striking specified text requiring selection board membership to represent the diverse population of the armed force to the extent practicable (removes the explicit diversity representation language).
Repeals 10 U.S.C. 656, the statutory provision requiring a Department of Defense plan and a mentoring and career counseling program to promote diversity in military leadership.
