What is #DisparateImpact ?

Hear Stephen Hayes of Relman Colfax PLLC explain #ECOA #CFAFSC

#DisparateImpact is fun because people take offense that intent is not needed to prove it.

In the same way you didn't mean to kill someone in accidental manslaughter, but did intend to complete the actions that resulted in that death.

Discrimination cases unravel as Trump scraps core civil rights tenet The administration is dismissing cases and unwinding settlements built on "disparate impact," which holds that even neutral policies can lead to biased outcomes.

“'It’s critical we have #DisparateImpact to fight against race discrimination,' said @tsilverstein.bsky.social, executive director of @prrac.bsky.social, who is watching at least a dozen housing and lending cases that could fall apart without it."

🚨 BREAKING: Trump has declared “disparate impact” unconstitutional — a move unravelling decades of US civil rights protections.

Bank settlements. School reforms. Police oversight.
All now being reversed.

The legal backbone of anti-discrimination is being dismantled. 🧵

#Disparateimpact! Do you know what it means and why it matters? In today’s #onwardandupward I unpack why a recent #executiveorder will expand #discrimination rather than build equality and meritocracy in federal #civilrights enforcement. @all4ed.org unpacks this & more at all4ed.org/publication/...

Op-Ed: Trump Order Makes Housing Discrimination Easier By Eliminating 'Disparate Impact' Data Trump attempted to rewrite settled Supreme Court precedent to make housing discrimination easier without fear of prosecution.

“The administration’s claim that this order to end #DisparateImpact liability promotes ‘meritocracy and a colorblind society’ is grossly out-of-touch with the reality for people of color, women, LGBTQ+ & people with disabilities.” #FairHousing @newsoneofficial.bsky.social newsone.com/6107629/trum...

The debate:

Is this the return of true meritocracy?

Or the erosion of hard-won protections against systemic bias?

Civil rights advocates say Trump order guts protections against discrimination Order directs federal agencies to ‘deprioritize enforcement’ of laws where policies have discriminatory effects

"In legal terms, disparate-impact liability allows people to challenge practices that appear neutral but disproportionately harm protected groups, without having to prove deliberate discrimination."

SCOTUS upheld the use of #DisparateImpact in the 2015 Inclusive Communities decision. Eleven appellate courts have sanctioned the use of this important civil rights tool. We will continue to use Disparate Impact to protect people and communities against discrimination. WE ARE NOT GOING BACK!

Restoring Equality of Opportunity and Meritocracy By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.  Purpose.  A

The Trump Admin is again trying to override our laws with a harmful Executive Order. This latest EO attempts to eliminate #DisparateImpact. But don't be fooled. Presidents cannot upend our laws or the Constitution with an EO. #DisparateImpact is established law.

1/2 Quick translation: "We don't care if our policies create Jim Crow-level inequality, as long as we don't say the quiet part loud." Removing disparate impact liability is a HUGE blow.

Trump is going after the Civil Rights Act in a new executive order misleadingly titled "RESTORING EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY AND MERITOCRACY." But it attacks the equal opportunity provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 — #civilrights #civilrightsact #titlevi #disparateimpact #employment
