Federal judge overturns Education Department policy targeting DEI-related grants

A federal judge has struck down a U.S. Department of Education policy requiring the termination of grants supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, ruling that the directive was arbitrary and capricious. U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley found that the policy lacked clear criteria for determining which programs constituted DEI and failed to consider the impact of cancellations on teachers and teacher-training programs. The department announced in February 2025 that it was canceling more than $600 million in grants, with more than 90% of awards under two K-12 teacher preparation programs ultimately terminated. The ruling came in a lawsuit brought by eight Democratic-led states, although separate claims seeking to recover terminated funding would need to proceed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims.
