LC 863 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibit funding of DEI in public K-12 schools

This bill would have prohibited state funding for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs in public K-12 schools. It aimed to prevent public school districts from using state funds for initiatives related to DEI, directly affecting school budgets and program offerings. The bill was introduced in 2024 but died in the drafting process in May 2025, meaning it did not advance to a vote or become law.
