Quote of the Day
“"Diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives are legal efforts that help students feel safe, supported and respected. The Trump Administration’s threats to withhold critical education funding due to the use of these initiatives are not only unlawful, but harmful to our children, families, and schools,” said AG Campbell. “By filing this lawsuit, we seek to block any such reckless disruptions to our children’s education, and as Attorney General and a mom, I will continue to hold the Administration accountable for illegal actions that harm our state.””
