News release from Indiana Governor Mike Braun’s office:<\/p>\n

Attorney General Todd Rokita secures first-of-its-kind $1.2 million settlement with state contractor Deloitte over discriminatory DEI practices<\/strong>
\nCompany resolves allegations it violated the False Claims Act by failing to uphold nondiscrimination requirements while contracting with the State<\/em><\/p>\n

Indianapolis, Indiana (August 25, 2026) \u2014 Under the leadership of Attorney General Todd Rokita, Indiana has secured a landmark $1.2 million settlement with Deloitte\u2014the first of its kind between a state and a government contractor\u2014to resolve allegations of unlawful diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices.<\/p>\n

Deloitte, a global firm specializing in audit, tax and consulting services, agreed to the payment after claims that it violated the False Claims Act. The company allegedly certified compliance with Indiana\u2019s nondiscrimination requirements while continuing discriminatory employment practices based on race and sex.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no justification for unlawful discrimination, even when a business claims good intentions or cloaks its practices in the language of DEI,\u201d Attorney General Rokita said. \u201cTreating people differently in the workplace based on race or sex is destructive and illegal. Companies that do business with the State explicitly pledge not to engage in it. We will continue to vigorously enforce Indiana\u2019s False Claims and Whistleblower Protection Act and work to eliminate illegal DEI discrimination in all its forms.\u201d<\/p>\n

The settlement marks the latest step in Attorney General Rokita\u2019s ongoing efforts to root out unlawful DEI practices in state contracting. Last year, his office updated Indiana\u2019s standard contract language to explicitly prohibit discriminatory DEI practices and implemented new policies requiring outside counsel to refrain from such programs. Enforcement of those anti-DEI policies is now underway, with today\u2019s agreement serving as an important milestone.<\/p>\n

This action also complements the Attorney General\u2019s work to eliminate the State\u2019s unconstitutional Minority and Women\u2019s Business Enterprise Program.<\/p>\n

Deloitte has simultaneously resolved similar claims with the U.S. Department of Justice and the State of Florida.<\/p>\n
