Abstract
Shortly after President Trump's inauguration, the U.S. Department of Education removed hundreds of pages from its website. For example, press releases only dated back to Jan. 23, 2025 (https://www.ed.gov/about/news). Additionally, Special Education Action reported that content on existing pages was altered, such as the removal of “gender identity or transgender status” from the types of discrimination OCR has the authority to investigate. The website may also have removed content related to diversity, equity, and inclusion to comply with executive orders directing federal agencies to eliminate DEI-related practices.
