  1. Major #health cutbacks: The budget proposes massive cuts at the #NIH & #CDC, but it includes $500M for *Health* #RFKJr’s signature initiative: Make America Healthy Again. The CDC’s budget would be cut by more than half, to $4B from roughly $9B.

    Significant reduction in #education: Education spending would fall by $12 billion under #Trump’s 2026 blueprint, w/the most significant cut coming from a plan to “streamline” #TitleI money for high-#poverty #schools & other #K12 programs.

  6. #NY public schools tell #Trump administration they won’t comply with #DEI order

    Excerpt: "The demand specifically threatens #TitleI funding, which sends billions of dollars a year to America’s schools and targets #LowIncome areas.

    "Morton-Bentley wrote that the state Education Department has already certified to the federal government on multiple occasions that it is complying with #TitleVI of the #CivilRightsAct of 1964, most recently in January. He said the federal department is basing its demands to end DEI programs on a faulty legal interpretation.

    "'Given the fact that you are already in possession of guarantees by NYSED that it has and will comply with Title VI, no further certification will be forthcoming,' he wrote.

    "He also said the administration’s stance is an 'abrupt shift' from the one taken by the first Trump administration, citing comments in 2020 made by then-U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos that #diversity and #inclusion were 'cornerstones of high organizational performance.' He wrote the administration has provided no explanation of why it changed positions."

  16. In a memo sent to top #PublicEducation ofcls across the country, the #Education Dept said that #funding for schools w/high percentages of #LowIncome #students, known as #TitleI funding, was at risk pending compliance w/the #Trump admin’s directive.

    The memo included a *certification* letter that state & local #school ofcls must sign & return within 10 days, even as the admin has struggled to define which programs would violate its *interpretation* of #CivilRights laws.
