Trump Admin. Tells Schools: No Federal Funds If You’re Using DEI
The Trump administration is pressuring states and school districts to sign certification disavowing DEI initiatives or risk losing federal education funding - a move critics say misrepresents civil rights law and is intended to chill lawful, equity-focused efforts in schools. Despite lacking a clear definition of DEI, the administration is aggressively using federal authority to enforce its political agenda, prompting confusion, legal challenges, and backlash from educators and civil rights advocates.
