The Restoring Equal Opportunity Act nullifies specific Presidential approvals of regulations related to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Fair Housing Act. It prohibits claims alleging unlawful employment practices or discriminatory housing practices based on disparate impact, which refers to practices that are neutral on their face but have a disproportionate effect on certain groups. The bill aims to eliminate the use of disparate-impact liability to the maximum degree possible.
