- What it does
By this rule, DHS amends its regulations implementing Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) consistent with a recent rule issued by the Department of Justice (DOJ). Like the DOJ rule, this rule aligns the DHS regulations more closely with Title VI's original public meaning, avoids constitutional concerns, reduces compliance costs, and serves the public interest.
