The "DEI to DIE Act" eliminates diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs and positions within the Federal Government, redirecting focus to individual merit and equal dignity. It mandates the termination of DEI initiatives across federal agencies, requiring detailed reports on DEI-related expenditures and activities. The Act also revises federal employment practices to ensure they reward individual skills and performance, and establishes a monitoring system to prevent the resurgence of DEI programs under different labels.
This bill exempts certain House employees who are members of the Armed Forces and work for members of specific House committees from the limit on the number of employees in a Member's office who can have security clearances, provided they already possess a security clearance from the Department of Defense. The employee's security clearance level cannot be higher than their current Department of Defense clearance or the highest level the office can sponsor.
