Missouri SB1193 prohibits state departments from funding diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.

Missouri SB1193 amends state law to prohibit state departments from spending funds on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. This includes programs, staffing, or other initiatives that promote differential treatment based on race, color, or ethnicity. Exceptions are made for compliance with federal and state antidiscrimination laws and the Americans with Disabilities Act. The bill also prohibits state departments from requiring private sector employers to implement such initiatives as a condition of state contracts. The attorney general can file suit against violating departments.
