Getting the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights to investigate a complaint has never been a speedy process.

Steadily, the Department of Education has been churning out investigation after investigation on instances of alleged noncompliance with Trump’s directives on Title IX.
A number of these investigations originate from complaints made by conservative nonprofits like the Defense of Freedom Institute and America First Legal, which was founded by White House political adviser Stephen Miller.
