The Anti-DEI Executive Order Collides with Virginia’s SWaM Bill
GovCon Intelligence – Federal contractors across the country face harsh consequences from the White House executive order published Thursday, “Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors.” The Federal requirements may go into effect as early as April 25. For contractors that work both on Federal projects and Virginia state contracts, the timing puts the Executive Order on a collision course with Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger’s April 13 deadline to sign into law HB 61 and its new SWaM contracting targets.
