1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Equity and Inclusion Enforcement Act . 2. Findings Congress finds the following: (1) In 1964, Congress adopted title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.) to ensure that Federal dollars would not subsidize or support programs or activities that discriminate on the basis of race, color, or national origin. (2) The Supreme Court decision in Alexander v. Sandoval, 532 U.S. 275 (2001) overturned four decades of statutory protections against discrimination by stripping victims of discrimination of the right to bring actions under title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.) to challenge disparate impact. (3) For effective enforcement of title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.), it is necessary that the private right of action includes the means to challenge all forms of discrimination that are prohibited by such Act, including practices that have a disparate impact and are not justified as necessary to achieve the legitimate goals of programs or activities supported by Federal financial assistance. (4) Failure to reinstate or confirm a private right of action to challenge disparate impact under title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.) leaves only the Federal Government with the burden to pursue equal opportunity under the law. 3. Restoration of right to civil action in disparate impact cases under title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following: 607. The violation of any regulation relating to disparate impact issued under section 602 shall give rise to a private civil cause of action for its enforcement to the same extent as does an intentional violation of the prohibition of section 601. . 4. Designation of monitors under title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ( 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.) is further amended by adding at the end
