Expressing that compelled political litmus tests used by public institutions to require individuals to identify with specific ideological views are directly at odds with the principles of academic freedom and free speech and in violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution.

This resolution condemns public institutions of higher education (IHEs) for conditioning an individual's admission to or employment at the IHE on the individual pledging allegiance to or making a statement of personal support for or opposition to any political ideology or movement (e.g., diversity, equity, and inclusion). It also discourages IHEs from requesting or requiring any such pledge or statement.
