Each week, Crowell & Moring’s State Attorneys General team highlights significant actions that State AGs have taken. See our State Attorneys General page for more insights. Below are the updates from July 2-8, 2026:
Multistate
- A multistate coalition of 22 attorneys general submitted a comment letter urging the Trump Administration to withdraw a proposed information collection request associated with Executive Order 14398, “Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors.” The proposed collection would impose reporting, recordkeeping, and information-sharing obligations on federal contractors and subcontractors in connection with a new prohibition to be included in federal contracts related to DEI activities. The coalition argued that the proposed collection would violate the Paperwork Reduction Act, that the public notice did not provide enough information for meaningful public comment and underestimated the burden on contractors, and that the proposal does not establish adequate protections for sensitive and personally identifiable information.
