Montana HB635 would prohibit state and local government agencies from funding, establishing, or supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.

Montana HB635 aims to revise human rights laws by prohibiting state and local government agencies from funding, establishing, or supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. The bill defines such programs as those requiring employees to engage in activities related to diversity, equity, and inclusion theories. However, it allows exceptions for policies complying with federal law, educational goals, or tribal sovereignty. The bill also does not prevent agencies from offering sexual harassment training or ensuring compliance with federal law.
