On January 21, 2025, President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 14173, Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity (E.O. 14173), which revoked E.O. 11246. Therefore, applicants and employees of Federal contractors and subcontractors, authorized representatives, or third parties may file complaints of employment discrimination with OFCCP pursuant to Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended and the Vietnam Era Veteransâ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, but may no longer file complaints with OFCCP pursuant to E.O. 11246. OFCCP is requesting approval to revise questions on its complaint and pre-complaint inquiry forms to align with E.O. 14173. Following the revocation of E.O. 11246, OFCCP sought emergency approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to remove the items related to E.O. 11246 from the forms. OMB approved OFCCPâs request on July 2, 2025. On July 7, 2025, OFCCP also published a 60-day Federal Register notice seeking comments from the public on the updated forms and information collection request. OFCCP is now issuing the 30-day notice and supporting statement, which responds to the public comments.
