Education Dept Launches Anti-Diversity Snitch Line

February 27, 2025 Christianists, Republicans

Rolling Stone reports:

Donald Trump’s Department of Education has launched a new portal for Americans to rat out the diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts at their local public schools.

The portal, called EndDEI.ed.gov, debuted with a press release that featured no government authorities, but rather a quote from a co-founder of the reactionary group Moms for Liberty, which is infamous for its anti-LGBTQ+ activism and links to right-wing militant groups like the Proud Boys.

Tiffany Justice, of Moms for Liberty, touted the launch of the portal, highlighting it as an opportunity for parents to push back against “critical [race] theory, rogue sex education, and divisive ideologies.” She added: “Now is the time that you share the receipts of the betrayal that has happened in our public schools.”
