The bill aims to revise human rights laws in Montana by prohibiting state and local government agencies from funding, establishing, or supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. Specifically, it prohibits agencies from requiring employee participation in DEI programs, spending public funds on such programs, or employing individuals to coordinate or promote these initiatives. The bill also defines what constitutes a DEI program, detailing activities that focus on issues related to race, gender, and other identity factors, as well as theories related to social justice and systemic oppression.

However, the bill clarifies that it does not prevent agencies from adopting policies to comply with federal law or from offering training on sexual harassment. Additionally, it acknowledges the sovereignty of tribal nations and does not interfere with educational goals set forth in the Montana constitution. The new legal language introduced in the bill includes a definition of DEI programs and instructions for codification into Title 49 of the Montana Code.
