On June 4, 2026, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) approved its National Enforcement Plan (“NEP”) for FY2025 – FY2029, rescinding and replacing the agency’s FY2024 – FY2028 Strategic Enforcement Plan (“SEP”) before that plan’s scheduled endpoint. The NEP identifies and focuses the agency’s attention and resources on specific substantive categories of enforcement priorities including (1) “remedying DEI-related race and sex discrimination”; (2) “protecting American workers from anti-American national origin discrimination”; (3) “defending women’s rights to single-sex spaces at work and workers’ rights to express the binary nature of sex”; and (4) “protecting workers’ religious liberty rights to receive religious accommodations and be free from religious discrimination, harassment, and related retaliation,” among others.
