Plain-English Summary

The federal government would be required to study and report on how its rules, programs, and policies affect poverty levels and racial inequality, including differences in wealth between racial groups. Agencies would need to analyze whether their existing policies help or hurt efforts to reduce these disparities, giving Congress and the public better information about which government actions are working or failing to address economic inequality. This would apply across all federal departments and programs.
