Revise human rights laws
This bill prohibits Montana state and local government agencies from requiring or requesting diversity statements from individuals and bars them from giving preferential treatment based on such statements. The law defines a diversity statement as any document that promotes differential treatment based on characteristics like race, sex, sexual orientation, or religion. It includes an exception allowing agencies to accept diversity statements only when federal law requires it, limiting how that information can be used. The bill also clarifies that these restrictions do not prevent agencies from enforcing existing laws against discrimination and harassment.
