A bill for an act relating to state entities, including by modifying provisions related to prohibited diversity, equity, and inclusion offices and officers and to trainings and curricula regarding specific defined concepts provided by school districts.
HF 2123 prohibits state entities, including school districts, from establishing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) offices or providing trainings about "specific defined concepts" in curricula. If a violation occurs, the bill mandates termination of the violating employee’s employment and, if a supervisor knew of the violation and failed to act, their termination too. It also requires revocation of professional licenses for affected employees and imposes civil penalties on the entity (ranging from $50,000 to $100,000 based on budget size) payable to the state general fund. The law allows students, alumni, or employees to sue school districts for violations, with enforcement handled by the attorney general or private parties.
