BREAKING: We're suing the Trump administration for threatening funding cuts to schools that engage in diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.

It has been a perversion of the law and the truth what they are doing. Their actions will not stand up in court.

The federal government is breaking its own laws with the regime’s attacks on DEI and discriminatory funding cuts.

Thank you heros!

Here's hoping you don't have to take it all the way to the Supreme Court. Because we all know what will happen there.

Why aren’t you suing Kim Reynolds for erasing trans civil rights in Iowa? What she & the Iowa Republicans did is a human rights violation.

Indeed! Reynolds and the GOP find it within their power to legislate hate and inequality. We demand better of them. WOMEN ARE NOT PROPERTY. Proselytizing with taxpayer dollars is just another way to say ‘grooming’, which the GOP is against.

Harming vulnerable people seems to be Trump & DOGE sporting event.

You might want to team up with Gov. Mills :)

How do we join ACLU ?

Lawsuits are trump's playground.

He'll happily ignore that.

Where are huge anti-dictatorship protests like in 2016-2017?

notveryhappynow.bsky.social•3 days ago

We're older now, but our voices r still alive. calling senators, writing letters, and making calls. Younger generations r at the protests as well as boomers

No but it seems trump can

Thank you! DEIA isn't illegal, it's necessary.
The opposite of inclusion is exclusion though, and THAT isn't okay. Neither is INaccessibility.

Proud monthly donor to the ACLU! Keep fighting!

I’m old enough to remember with republicans “cared” about states rights

Oh wait that was like 4 months ago before they were handed all the power they could possibly want..

midnight-ether.bsky.social•3 days ago

And now you see who they really are.

It’s funny how when I see the paltry and ineffective actions taken by our so called leaders from the DNC it’s an exercise in frustration and bile generation. This, however, is wonderful and gives me a sliver of hope. Keep up the good work. #CryMoreChuds.

Could you also perhaps sue oklahomas trump bible debacle?

Are fake Republicans in Congress going to destroy National Flood Insurance, health insurance that companies offer to their employees, home insurance like they are doing to Medicaid, Social Security, Medicare, VA, USAID?

@aclu.org Please also include removal of the portal to report teachers who are teaching diversity, equity, and inclusion. This is on the Whitehouse webpage and teachers are being intimidated into not doing their jobs.

Donated!

American schools are DEI, by definition, unless they’re kicking most students and teachers out of class and teach virtually nothing.

cosmos-nebulae.bsky.social•3 days ago

Pfft how many classes have you really sat on. This week my students made power plant models, designed a lesson, my other classes investigated 55 mys of evolution by studying whale evolution. Don’t you dare tell me I am not teaching.

oma1966.bsky.social•3 days ago

You misunderstood me. I’m saying if they take DEI out of the schools, so much goes with it.

cosmos-nebulae.bsky.social•3 days ago

Ah my apologies. Just used to getting shat on by the public

egoode.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yes, but the schools will anyway.

kyndalllee.bsky.social•3 days ago

👏 Yessss! Thank you!
