Letters to the Trump Administration
Written By Amy Berman

The OCR Alumni Collective responded to Attorney General Bondi’s July 29, 2025, “Guidance for Recipients of Federal Funding on Unlawful Discrimination.” Specifically, the Collective clearly explained how the Guidance: (1) runs contrary to the civil rights laws and protections; (2) incorrectly limits efforts to promote diversity; (3) incorrectly limits the use of race neutral means to promote diversity; (4) incorrectly limits applicants’ discussion of their race and/or ethnicity; and (5) incorrectly mandates sex segregation.
