Plain-English Summary

The proposal would eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs and offices across federal agencies and would prohibit the federal government from considering race, ethnicity, or gender in hiring, contracting, and grant decisions. It would affect federal employees, job applicants, contractors bidding for government work, and organizations receiving federal funding. Supporters argue it promotes merit-based selection, while opponents contend it could reduce opportunities for historically underrepresented groups.
