Bill > HR461

This bill, known as the "Eliminate DEI in the Military Act," seeks to prohibit the use of federal funds for any Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) activities across the U.S. Armed Forces, national service academies, and the Department of Defense. The bill defines DEI activities broadly to include training programs, educational materials, employment positions, and appointments related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Specifically, the legislation would prevent federal money from being spent on any DEI-related initiatives at the U.S. Military Academy, Naval Academy, Air Force Academy, Coast Guard Academy, and Merchant Marine Academy, as well as within the broader military and defense establishments. By introducing this comprehensive ban, the bill aims to eliminate what its proponents likely view as unnecessary or divisive diversity-focused efforts within the military and related educational institutions, effectively ending federally funded programs and positions that address diversity and inclusion in these contexts.
