Summary
U.S. Education Department threatens to withhold Title I funds from K-12 schools if they continue DEI programs that it views as discriminatory.
The agency insists that civil rights laws prohibit using race as a factor in education, requiring state officials to certify compliance within 10 days.
The warning affects schools reliant on over $18.38 billion in Title I funding, impacting nearly 90% of U.S. districts and low-income communities.
Critics, including the American Federation of Teachers, call the move political bullying, while some leaders support stricter federal oversight for fund usage.
You’re taking their funding either way though.
they want to use the hard “R” in public again so bad they are drooling.
Wish we would eliminate billionaires instead. Fastest way to make improvements in this world.

I have still yet to hear a valid argument against DEI that was not racist and or mysognistic. All of the talking points against it is fabricated boogeyman stories without any factual evidence supporting it.
They should revolt and opt to lose funding. If every school does that it’s not tenable
