Trump cracks down on DEI: From state bans to federal overhaul, US education is being transformed
President Donald Trump has ordered a halt to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs across federal agencies, including those impacting U.S. education. The directive mandates immediate suspension of DEI initiatives and removal of related language in communications. The move prioritizes merit-based policies and challenges federal education programs aimed at promoting racial and ethnic diversity. It extends to the private sector, urging businesses to dismantle DEI efforts, reshaping U.S. education and employment practices.
