  • A federal judge on Thursday blocked President Donald Trump's executive order to shut down the Education Department and ordered the agency to reinstate employees who were fired in mass layoffs.

On May 22, 2025, a federal judge ruled in favor of the U.S. Department of Education in a significant case regarding the implementation of new educational policies aimed at improving equity and access in schools nationwide. The ruling upheld the department's authority to enforce these policies, which include measures to address funding disparities and enhance educational opportunities for underserved communities. The decision was met with approval from education advocates who argue that it will help level the playing field, while critics expressed concerns over increased federal oversight and potential bureaucratic challenges. This ruling is seen as a pivotal moment in the ongoing debate over educational reform and federal involvement in local school systems.
