The Education Department has proposed a rule to rescind the regulations for the Equity Assistance Center Program. This proposal is intended to allow the Department more flexibility in how it operates the program and to better align its support with current priorities. The Department is inviting comments from the public on whether to proceed with this change. The proposed rule would take effect on June 25, 2026, if finalized.
The rescission of these regulations could lead to a shift in how the Education Department addresses equity in education, potentially impacting schools and communities that rely on this support. The public comment period is an opportunity for those affected to voice their opinions on the proposed changes.
