The Trump administration is continuing its flurry of attacks on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, better known as DEI.

That includes an ultimatum issued by the Department of Education on Feb. 14, giving schools and universities two weeks to cancel their DEI programs or risk losing federal funding.

That deadline passed on Friday. That same day, the Department of Education launched an “End DEI” portal on its website, where the public can submit complaints about DEI programs or “practices” at public K-12 schools.

On Midday Edition Monday, we hear from a legal expert about their analysis of the situation and how the Department of Education's efforts to purge DEI programs might impact California moving forward.
