Federal courts have increasingly checked executive actions affecting education. Alongside striking down anti-DEI funding restrictions, a judge ordered the Department of Education to restore its Office for Civil Rights to full operation despite prior mass layoffs. Restrictions on political content in student club flyers were upheld by an appellate court, affirming schools' ability to regulate messaging to maintain neutrality. Additionally, the ADA’s new digital accessibility rule mandates web content compliance by April 2026, pressing institutions to prioritize compliance strategies. These decisions collectively highlight the judicial influence on education policy enforcement and civil rights protections.
