This bill would eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion offices across the federal government, effective immediately upon passage. The legislation terminates 40 specific DEI-related offices and programs located in cabinet-level agencies including the State Department, Treasury, Interior, Veterans Affairs, and military branches, as well as numerous other federal agencies and departments. Beyond shutting down these offices, the bill also prohibits cabinet-level agency heads from implementing any plans or programs related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and specifically bars the U.S. Agency for International Development from carrying out its diversity strategy. The bill contains no special funding provisions, as it primarily eliminates existing offices and their authorities rather than allocating new resources. No timeline is specified beyond the immediate effective date upon enactment, meaning these offices and programs would cease operating as soon as the president signs the legislation into law.
