Trump Rescinds Executive Order 11,246, Ending 60-Year-Old Affirmative Action Requirements for Federal Contractors
Jan 25, 2025, 09:07 PM
President Donald Trump has officially rescinded Executive Order 11,246, which mandated affirmative action programs for federal contractors. This executive order, in place for over 60 years, required government contractors to implement measures aimed at preventing discrimination based on gender, race, and sexual orientation. The new rule replaces these obligations with a requirement for contractors to certify that they do not have 'illegal' Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. Trump's action is seen as a significant shift in federal contracting policy, aligning the requirements for federal contractors with those of all employers. The decision has sparked debate regarding its implications for workplace diversity and anti-discrimination efforts.
