In a practical sense, nothing. It authorized EEOC to sue employers the Commission BELIEVED had violated Title VII. EEOC almost never has done so since that date; fewer than one-half of 1% of EEO charges.

And the EEOC loses a substantial proportion of cases, even though it hand-picks suits and uses lawyers who are on salary, not hourly rates.

Only a tiny fraction of employers violate Title VII, and EEOC has no expertise in determining which ones do so.
