 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

EEOC Transparency and Accountability Act

This bill provides statutory authority for the requirement that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) vote on whether to commence, intervene, or otherwise participate in certain types of litigation, including cases involving issues in which the commission has taken a position that is contrary to the corresponding judicial precedent. (The EEOC adopted a similar resolution in January 2021.)

The commission must post information relating to such cases and associated votes on its website.
