Department of Education launches portal to report reverse discrimination in schools

TRENTON, NJ — As radical protesters and political ideologues push agendas that seek to harm, disrupt, or discriminate in educational settings, the Trump administration is responding. This portal will be available to students on K-12 and college campuses in the New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania region where a majority of anti-Jewish sentiment on campus is being felt the most.

The U.S. Department of Education has launched an online portal allowing students, parents, and educators to report alleged discriminatory practices in schools. The initiative is part of the administration’s efforts to ensure educational institutions focus on learning and remain free from “divisive ideologies and indoctrination,” according to the department.

The government is calling it the ‘End DEI Portal‘.

The submission form allows individuals to describe instances of discrimination and upload supporting evidence. Reports can be filed anonymously, and the department has pledged to maintain confidentiality “to the fullest extent permitted by law.”

The Department of Education stated that the information collected may be used to determine whether discrimination has occurred and to strengthen federal oversight of educational institutions. The portal is authorized under multiple federal laws, including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, and the Americans with Disabilities Act.

The administration has emphasized its commitment to ensuring schools provide an environment centered on education. “Schools should be focused on learning,” the department stated in its announcement.

The launch of the reporting system aligns with broader efforts by the administration to increase accountability in schools and reinforce existing federal protections against discrimination.
