New Hampshire judge announces formal end to Trump policy against DEI in schools • New Hampshire Bulletin A New Hampshire federal judge formally dismissed a yearlong lawsuit against the Trump administration’s “anti-DEI” directive to public schools — weeks after both sides agreed it is no longer necessary. 

When the Department of Education issued vague threats to defund schools that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion, we sued and now they're backing down.

This is a win for students' right to a full and honest education.
