WASHINGTON—Heritage Action, a conservative organization with 2.5 million grassroots activists nationwide, urges members of Congress to support the Dismantle DEI Act, a bill that safeguards equal protection under the law for all Americans, regardless of race or sex, and comprehensively defunds the federal government’s wasteful DEI bureaucracy.
The legislation, introduced by Rep. Michael Cloud (R-TX) in the House and Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) in the Senate, eliminates the Biden administration’s wasteful “diversity, equity, and inclusion” policies and spending across all federal agencies.
Heritage Action Executive Vice President Ryan Walker released the following statement:
“The American people have had enough of the political spin and DEI indoctrination that has made our country weaker and more divided than ever. Voters are relying on Congress to keep their promises and codify President Trump’s efforts to stop the Left’s radical agenda from permeating further across the country.
“The Dismantle DEI Act safeguards equal protection under the law for all Americans regardless of race or sex, unlike our current system. Heritage Action commends Rep. Cloud and Sen. Schmitt for spearheading the effort to encourage Congress to dismantle the illegal DEI regime entrenched in the federal government.”
