United States (HRNW) — The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights is facing a significant backlog in handling complaints, especially in cases of sexual assault and discrimination in schools. Staffing cuts and enforcement shifts have slowed investigations, leaving many survivors without timely justice or support. Advocacy groups warn this backlog undermines decades of progress in protecting students’ rights and calls for renewed commitment to civil rights enforcement.
