The
Trump administration Thursday threatened to withhold federal Title
I funding from public schools nationwide unless state education officials
prove that programs promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion have been
eliminated.
The Department of Education sent
out a memo to top public education officials to threaten the removal of the
funding, which goes to districts with high percentages of students from
low-income families, reports The New
York Times.
The
memo was sent out with a certification letter that state and local officials
are required to sign and return within 10 days.
"Federal
financial assistance is a privilege, not a right," Craig Trainor, the
acting assistant education secretary for civil rights, said in a statement
Thursday. "When state education commissioners accept federal funds, they
agree to abide by federal anti-discrimination requirements."
The
administration, however, has not defined which programs violate how it
interprets civil rights laws.
In her
confirmation hearing in February, Education Secretary Linda McMahon agreed that
schools should be allowed to celebrate the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King.
Jr., but said she was "not quite certain" about whether classes
focusing on Black history were acceptable as part of President Donald Trump's
agenda.
The
Education Department more recently, though, said an assessment of school
policies depends on "the facts and circumstances of each case" and
that programs that recognize historical events and contributions would not be
in violation if they "do not engage in racial exclusion or
discrimination."
Schools,
however, must consider if their program discourages members of all races from
participating or creates hostile environments.
According
to the Pew Research Foundation, the federal government
is responsible for about 8% of local school funding, but the amounts districts
get depend on income levels. Mississippi gets about 23% of school funding from
the U.S. government, but in New York, 7% comes from Washington.
