• After five far-left Northern Virginia school districts refused to stop forcing “transgender” policies on their students, the U.S. Department of Education is proceeding with suspending or terminating federal funding.
  • The Education Department announced Tuesday that the five Washington, D.C.-suburb districts — Alexandria City, Arlington County, Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and Prince William County — would be placed on “high-risk status,” meaning they will be forced to pay education expenses up front, and the federal government will only reimburse them.
  • More than $50 million in grant funding, including formula, discretionary, and impact aid grants, will be under the reimbursement status, meaning the districts will have to prove that federal dollars are being spent consistently with federal law in order to get federal funding.
  • The move comes after all five districts were found in violation of Title IX for maintaining their “transgender” policies allowing students to use the restrooms and locker rooms of the opposite sex based on “gender identity,” forcing students and teachers to use “preferred pronouns” at the threat of disciplinary action, and other far-left gender theory policies.
  • After the Education Department attempted to enter a resolution agreement with the districts to stop their endangerment of children, each of them rejected the agreement in order to adhere to the warped ideology.
