The Trump administration is mandating that K-12 schools certify compliance with federal civil rights laws as a condition for receiving federal financial assistance. This move targets diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) practices, which the administration claims can lead to discrimination against certain racial groups. Schools must sign a certification within ten days or risk losing substantial funding, including Title I support for low-income students. The Education Department has warned that using illegal DEI practices can be a violation of federal law, reflecting a significant shift in policy towards the management of educational equality.
As a condition for receiving federal money, the Trump administration is ordering K-12 schools to certify compliance with federal civil rights laws and eliminate DEI practices.
Federal financial assistance is a privilege, not a right... many schools have flouted their legal obligations by using DEI programs to discriminate against one group of Americans.
