No one can face discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, or sex. This applies to any activity funded by federal law enforcement assistance under this chapter. Certain enforcement rules from another section apply, with the Attorney General standing in for the Office of Justice Programs.

(a) Federally assisted emergency assistance activities — No person in any state may, because of race, color, religion, national origin, or sex, be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, subjected to discrimination under, or denied employment connected to, any activity for which federal law enforcement assistance is provided under this chapter. (b) Provisions of section 10228(c)(3) and (4) of this title applicable to violations — Paragraphs (3) and (4) of section 10228(c) apply to a violation of (a), except wherever those paragraphs say "this section" or "paragraph (1)," they instead mean subsection (a) of this section, and wherever they mention the Office of Justice Programs, they instead mean the Attorney General.
