Original Note:
The post appears to conflate the Equal Employment Opportunity Act (applies to all Americans) with EO 11246 (nondiscrimination and affirmative action practices for federal contractors) — they are named similarly. The President cannot revoke a law; Congress must repeal it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_Employment_Opportunity_Act_of_1972 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_11246 https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/ending-illegal-discrimination-and-restoring-merit-based-opportunity/
