Summary
This bill amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Fair Housing Act to prohibit disparate-impact claims in employment and housing contexts. Disparate-impact liability allows plaintiffs to challenge facially neutral policies that have a disproportionate effect on protected classes, even without proof of discriminatory intent; this bill eliminates that cause of action. The bill also nullifies certain federal regulations that had implemented disparate-impact standards under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.
