Pennsylvania responds to Trump administration's funding threat: 'We follow civil rights laws'
Pennsylvania has affirmed its compliance with US civil rights laws in response to a Trump administration warning that schools promoting certain DEI programs may lose federal funding. The Pennsylvania Department of Education stated all school districts meet federal anti-discrimination standards. Governor Josh Shapiro urged congressional action, while other Democrat-led states took firmer stands. The US Department of Education extended the response deadline to April 24, intensifying the national debate over race-based education policies.
