HR 1229 United States House · 118th Congress

Stop CRT Act

HR 1229, the "Stop CRT Act," codifies Executive Order 13950 into law and restricts federal funding for entities teaching specific concepts about race. It prohibits federal grants to organizations that teach any of six specified ideas, including that race determines moral worth, the U.S. is fundamentally racist, or individuals bear responsibility for historical actions based on race. The bill directly affects schools, nonprofits, and other recipients of federal funds by banning support for educational content matching these prohibitions. Key provisions require federal agencies to deny funding to any entity advancing these concepts, making the executive order legally binding. This policy change alters how federal funds are distributed based on mandated educational content.
