Federal Actions Threaten Funding for Native Hawaiian and Minority-Serving Educational Programs
TL;DR Summary
The U.S. Department of Education, led by Secretary Linda McMahon, is reviewing and potentially ending federal programs serving Native Hawaiians and other minority groups, citing constitutional concerns about race-based funding, which could threaten over $12 million in funding for Hawaii's Native Hawaiian initiatives. This move has been condemned by Hawaii's congressional delegation as an attack on minority-serving institutions.
