Counties and cities are prohibited from establishing or maintaining diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) offices, hiring DEI employees, or contracting with third parties to perform DEI functions

Local governments cannot compel, require, or solicit DEI statements from any person, nor give preferential consideration based on such statements

"Diversity, equity, and inclusion" is defined to include efforts to influence workforce composition based on race, sex, color, ethnicity, gender identity, or sexual orientation, except for colorblind and sex-neutral hiring under existing antidiscrimination laws

Prohibited concepts include official policies referencing unconscious bias, cultural appropriation, microaggressions, antiracism, systemic oppression, intersectionality, gender theory, racial or sexual privilege, and related terminology

Licensed attorneys and their support staff working on compliance with federal laws (Americans with Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Civil Rights Act of 1964) are exempted from the restrictions
