Republicans Introduce Bill to Eliminate Federal DEI Programs

The 'Dismantle DEI Act' aims to end diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives across federal agencies, contractors, and educational institutions.

Sen. JD Vance and Rep. Michael Cloud lead the effort with support from over 20 GOP lawmakers.
The bill seeks to rescind President Biden's DEI executive order and prohibit DEI training and pledges.
Proponents argue DEI practices foster division and racial bias, wasting taxpayer money.
The legislation would block federal contracts with entities that implement DEI practices.
The bill's passage is uncertain with Democrats controlling the Senate and White House.
