In other education news, the American Federation of Teachers is suing Trump’s Department of Education for shutting down income-driven student loan repayment plans, used by millions of borrowers. The union accused the Trump administration of “effectively freezing the nation’s student loan system.”
Separately, two parents and a national disability rights group last week filed a lawsuit accusing Trump and Education Department head Linda McMahon of sabotaging civil rights enforcement in education by firing the agency’s investigators and lawyers who handled discrimination complaints at schools.
