Republican legislators in Iowa have introduced a bill that would bankrupt the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) bureaucracies at state colleges.
The proposed legislation, House File 616, would bar public institutions governed by the Iowa Board of Regents from funding DEI efforts or hiring DEI officials, thereby ending their DEI initiatives and bureaucracies.
The legislation was introduced as an “Act prohibiting institutions of higher learning governed by the state board of regents from expending moneys to fund diversity, equity, and inclusion offices or to hire individuals to serve as diversity, equity, and inclusion officers.”
The bill explains that it also “authorizes a student, faculty member or alumnus of a public institution of higher education alleging a violation of the bill’s provisions to bring a civil action for injunctive relief against the public institution of higher education to prohibit the public institution of higher education from continuing such violation.”
