7.2
The U.S. Department of Justice joined a lawsuit filed by the 1776 Project Foundation against the Los Angeles Unified School District, alleging the district's decades-old desegregation program discriminates against white students. DOJ officials, including Attorney General Pamela Bondi and civil rights chief Harmeet Dhillon, say LAUSD's PHBAO program separates students by race and provides preferential benefits; critics call the suit politically motivated.
