💨 Abstract

The U.S. Department of Education's "Dear Colleague" letter, which addresses diversity, equity, and inclusion practices, is being contested in court by the American Federation of Teachers, the American Sociological Association, and others. The plaintiffs argue that the letter represents a significant policy change, compelling teachers to self-censor their discussions about diversity due to fear of losing federal funding.
