US EditionACLU of Indiana files complaint, challenges Braun's gender-related executive order
- On Thursday, the Trump administration launched an investigation into the California Department of Education over a state law implemented before the 2024-25 school year that restricts schools from requiring notification to parents about a student's gender identity or sexual orientation.
- The investigation stems from concerns raised by critics, including Lakeside Union School District Boardmember Andrew Hayes, who is behind the district's Parent's Bill of Rights, arguing parents have a right to direct their children's education and know what is happening in schools.
- The Trump administration, along with figures like Roseville City School District board member Jonathan Zachreson, believes the California law potentially violates the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, while California, which is the first state to enact such a policy, defends the law as ensuring a safe and supportive learning environment for students.
- Education Secretary Linda McMahon stated, "It is not only immoral but also potentially in contradiction with federal law for California schools to hide crucial information about a student's well-being from parents and guardians," while California Teachers Association president David Goldberg asserted the law ensures a safe learning environment.
- The U.S. Department of Education is considering potential penalties, including the withdrawal of federal funding, prompting Newsom spokesperson Elana Ross to reference Trump's previous plans to dismantle the agency, amidst a broader nationwide debate over transgender rights and varying state policies regarding gender-affirming care, sports participation, and parental notification.
