Executive Order 14319: Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government

This Executive Order issued in July 2025 directs federal agencies to only procure large language models (LLMs) that prioritize truthfulness and ideological neutrality. The order cites concerns over perceived bias introduced by DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) frameworks in AI tools and mandates agencies to favor AI that avoids ideological leanings. It also outlines specific implementation steps and compliance timelines, tasking the OMB and other entities with issuing guidance and monitoring vendor adherence. This move marks a significant federal shift in how AI is evaluated and adopted within government systems.
