The Federal Government is seeking the public's input to better advance equity and support historically underserved communities as part of President Biden's  initiative to overhaul government services and root out discrimination. On May 5, 2021, the Office of Management and Budget issued a request for information (RFI) seeking input from members of the public and private sector, advocacy groups, nonprofit organizations and others. The information requested will aid federal agencies as they examine the current state of equity within their organizations and build equity action plans to remove identified barriers that are impacting policies, programs, services, processes, and operations.
