This bill, formally known as the "No Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the District of Columbia Act" or the "No DEI in DC Act," aims to prevent the Government of the District of Columbia from engaging in certain diversity, equity, or inclusion (DEI) practices and conducting related training. It broadly prohibits the D.C. government from undertaking any "prohibited diversity, equity, or inclusion practice" and explicitly bans the use of government funds, directly or indirectly, for such activities or entities that engage in them. A "prohibited diversity, equity, or inclusion practice" is extensively defined to include discriminating based on race, color, ethnicity, religion, biological sex, or national origin. It also covers requiring employees to undergo training or assent to statements asserting that a particular group is inherently superior, inferior, oppressive, or privileged. Furthermore, the bill prohibits taking adverse personnel actions against employees who refuse to complete training or sign statements related to DEI, critical theory, intersectionality, or sexual orientation/gender identity, or who refuse to participate in actions that would treat individuals advantageously or disadvantageously based on protected characteristics. Beyond general practices, the bill specifically prohibits the development, implementation, or purchase of any training program or plan by the D.C. government that pertains to diversity, equity, and inclusion, critical theory, intersectionality, or sexual orientation/gender identity . It also bans training that asserts or requires trainees to assert that any particular group is inherently superior, inferior, oppressive, or privileged. Employees cannot be required to complete such training, and no D.C. government funds may be used for these purposes. The legislation mandates the repeal of numerous existing District of Columbia laws and the abolition of various offices and commissions. This includes repealing laws related to diverse emerging fund managers, small and local business development, and specific offices like the Latino Community Office, Office on Asian and Pacific Islander Affairs, Office of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, and Questioning Affairs, and the Office and Commission on African-American Affairs. It also targets laws concerning racial equity training, the Office of Racial Equity, the Commission on Reparations, and various provisions related to LGBTQ+ services and health equity. Key offices and commissions to be abolished include the Mayor's Office of Racial Equity, the Council Office of Racial Equity, the Commission on Reparations, and several mayoral offices and commissions focused on specific demographic groups such as Latino, Caribbean, African-American, Asian and Pacific Islander, and LGBTQ+ communities, as well as the Commission for Women and the Commission on Health Equity. The bill explicitly prohibits the D.C. government from establishing substantially similar successor offices or commissions. It also bans funding for any agency office, chief diversity officer, or plans/surveys related to DEI, or employee resource/affinity groups based on protected characteristics. For enforcement, the bill establishes a private right of action , allowing any person alleging a violation to bring a civil action in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. Successful plaintiffs may be awarded equitable relief, a minimum of $1,000 per violation per day, attorney's fees, compensatory damages, and other appropriate relief. However, the bill includes a rule of construction clarifying that it does not prevent the maintenance and funding of traditional Equal Employment Opportunity offices or offices enforcing the Americans with Disabilities Act.
