Diversity Officers and Professors Sue to Block Trump’s DEI Orders

College professors and diversity officers are suing to block President Trump's executive orders targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, claiming they exceed legal authority and threaten academic freedom and access to education for all.
The lawsuit argues that Trump's orders violate the First and Fifth Amendments and seeks to have them declared unconstitutional.
The orders aim to eliminate federal diversity offices and enforce civil rights laws against DEI programs, potentially leading to financial penalties for non-compliance.
The plaintiffs assert that the vague definitions in the orders infringe on due process rights and could stifle free speech and academic freedom in higher education.
