Ban on 'Divisive' Training in Federal Agencies and Contractors
This act aims to prohibit the use of federal funds for training that promotes concepts deemed 'divisive' based on race or sex. Citizens may observe changes in workplace training content for government-related jobs and federally funded programs, potentially impacting how diversity and inclusion topics are addressed.
Key points
Prohibits federal funds for training that promotes concepts like one race/sex being superior, or individuals being inherently racist/sexist due to their race/sex.
Military and government contractors are barred from conducting training with these 'divisive' concepts; non-compliance can lead to contract loss.
Federal agencies must review grant programs and training to ensure they do not promote 'divisive' concepts, and specific executive orders on racial equity and diversity are defunded.
