缅因州和弗吉尼亚州的学校面临联邦对DEI方案的检查,因为认证存在争议。 Schools in Maine and Virginia face federal scrutiny over DEI programs as certifications are disputed.

缅因州教育部拒绝证实美国教育部在取消多样性、公平和包容(DEI)方案方面是否遵守了美国教育部的规定,指出认证不够明确,并将国家与以往的行政指导联系起来。 The Maine Department of Education has refused to certify compliance with the U.S. Department of Education regarding the removal of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, stating the certification lacks clarity and ties the state to previous administration guidance. 同时,弗吉尼亚州的Loudoun县公立学校可能会失去联邦资金,因为他们的校长以含糊的语言拒绝签署类似的证书。 Meanwhile, Loudoun County Public Schools in Virginia may lose federal funding as their superintendent refuses to sign a similar certification, citing vague language. 马里兰州和新罕布什尔州的联邦法官暂时阻止了美国教育部试图终止DEI的做法,裁定该政策超越了联邦权力。 Federal judges in Maryland and New Hampshire have temporarily blocked the U.S. Department of Education's attempt to end DEI practices, ruling that the policy oversteps federal authority.
