What happened
Education Secretary Linda McMahon and Nicki Neily, founder and president of Defending Education, discussed the Department of Education’s Title IX investigation into Maine’s Department of Education, in the department’s upload of May 22, 2025. The department’s description stated that it will enforce all federal laws to safeguard students and families.
Why it matters
The Maine investigation was the highest-profile state-level Title IX fight of McMahon’s first months, and the department presented it jointly with an outside education advocacy leader — a sign of how the administration aligned its enforcement cases with the parent-rights movement that backed them.
