Contractors from thousands of companies would be required to revise how they hire if they want to do business with the Federal Government.
This could create a major disruption in the whole process of government purchasing.
What I think will actually happen is that most companies will continue with their current hiring practices, but not call it DEI. There isn't exactly a lot of unemployed excess labor out their anyway.
