President Donald Trump has set a dizzying pace with his rollout of education policies since returning to the White House—with his detractors frequently trying to stall his aggressive maneuvers through litigation.
As of April 18, Education Week has identified 28 lawsuits that challenge either Trump administration education policies or broader policies from the administration that affect education.
The chart below details each of those lawsuits and their status as they make their way through the courts. Click here for a glossary of the policies the lawsuits are challenging.
