This proposed constitutional amendment would ban public schools, colleges, and government agencies from giving special treatment or discriminating based on race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin. It would prohibit requiring support for race-based preferences or diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies for admission, hiring, or promotion, and block public funding for offices that promote such preferences. Exceptions include academic research, teaching history, health services, compliance with federal law, tribal programs, and required data collection. If approved by the Legislature, it would appear on the 2026 general election ballot.
