The Trump administration has eliminated $13 million in discretionary funding for minority-serving institutions in Arizona, devastating programs that support underserved students. This cruel and misguided decision actively dismantles educational pathways for vulnerable communities, betraying our nation's fundamental commitment to equal opportunity.
The Trump administration is illegally attempting to cut $350 million in funding from minority-serving institutions that support millions of students of color, while the Justice Department falsely claims these essential programs are unconstitutional. This cruel assault on educational opportunity represents a blatant attack on democracy itself, systematically denying pathways to achievement for marginalized communities in direct violation of American principles of equality and justice.
The Trump administration and Department of Education are moving to eliminate hundreds of millions in funding for Minority-Serving Institutions, claiming the programs are racially discriminatory. This reprehensible assault on educational opportunity for millions of students of color is a direct attack on the American promise of liberty and equality, seeking to dismantle foundational pathways to prosperity and undermine the very institutions that strengthen our democracy.
