Maternal death rate isn't as bad if you don't count Black women, GOP senator says. Sen Bill Cassidy said his state's high maternal death rates are more standard if you "correct for race," Politico reports. Louisiana has a high Black population and one of the worst maternal death rates in the US.

Redistributing public school funding into K-12 education savings accounts and converting most IDEA funding into a no-strings formula block grant States or families would likely pay more due to unregulated allocation and use of IDEA funding under Project 2025.12 IDEA authorized the federal government to pay 40 percent of the average per-student spending for special education services.13 However, current funding is at less than 13 percent.14 Under Project 2025, schools would receive funding from individual student savings accounts managed by nonprofits.15 It is unclear whether these schools would be required to abide by IDEA16 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.17
