Court cancels rule against diversity grants in Education Department

A judge has struck down a policy at the Education Department that blocked grants aimed at diversity, equity, and inclusion, known as DEI. The ruling stops the agency from enforcing restrictions that stopped money from going to programs focused on these areas. This decision comes after legal challenges questioned the fairness and legality of the department's previous rules on how grant money is given out to schools and programs. The court found that the policy went beyond what was allowed under current laws. Officials have not yet shared full details on how the department will change its grant process following this court order.
