EEOC Transparency and Accountability Act
This bill requires the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to obtain a majority vote from its commissioners before commencing, intervening in, or joining certain types of lawsuits. It specifically applies to systemic discrimination cases, high-cost cases, cases challenging legal precedents, and cases likely to generate public controversy. The EEOC must publicly post case details - including court, case name, allegations, and each commissioner's vote - on its website within 30 days of any litigation decision. These changes aim to increase transparency and accountability in the EEOC’s litigation decisions.
