    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 15947
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The General Services Administration (GSA) plans to issue a final rule that will cancel a previous rule, known as FMR Case 2024-03. This rule aimed to update transportation management with language supporting diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, and was published on November 26, 2024. The decision to rescind the rule aligns with two Executive Orders from January 2025 that aim to revert to traditional gender language and remove what the current administration considers unnecessary provisions. GSA's actions are part of an effort to comply with the current administration's priorities.
