USDA's amendments would remove its regulatory provisions that currently treat practices producing disparate impacts as unlawful under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  Specifically, USDA is rescinding portions of its regulations promulgated pursuant to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, to more closely align its regulations to the language that Congress enacted in Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibiting intentionally discriminatory conduct.
