In response to the federal government’s current lack of support for the disparate impact framework, the Legal Defense Fund, Democracy Forward, the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, and the National Institute for Workers’ Rights have released the Disparate Impact Explainer. Pushing back against Executive Order No. 1428 -which seeks to eliminate disparate impact- the new resource breaks down ways advocates and attorneys can continue to fight and promote fair access to opportunity for women, people of color, people with disabilities, older adults, and others, in contexts ranging from the workplace to housing to education. “Protecting these legal tools is about more than just policy; it is about defending the principle of equal opportunity that moves our communities and our country forward.”
