Trump Seeks Supreme Court Approval for Teacher Training Funding Cuts

Background on the Funding Cuts

On March 26, 2025, President Donald Trump's administration submitted a request to the U.S. Supreme Court to reinstate cuts to hundreds of millions of dollars allocated for teacher training. The move aims to support Trump's broader initiative to diminish diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, a policy currently being challenged by eight states led by Democratic governors.
