FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—The Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division dismissed more than 50 desegregation cases that sat on court dockets for more than half a century.

“In this administration, we are ending prolonged federal oversight of these school districts because the effort does not reflect the reality of those classrooms today,” said Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon. “In some cases, school districts have been under federal control for more than 60 years.”

“Now these local school districts can redirect taxpayer dollars back to benefiting students,” she added, “instead of funding onerous and outdated consent decrees.”

As of the start of the Trump administration, about 150 school districts were still under desegregation court orders, most of which were in the South.

Court orders have been dismissed in Tuscumbia, Alabama; St. Clair County, Alabama; Tarrant, Alabama; Rankin County, Mississippi; and Dyersburg, Tennessee.

The DOJ is doing a case-by-case review of pending desegregation cases. Cases still on the docket in federal courts were filed in the 1960s and ’70s.

After concluding that a school district has achieved unitary status, the DOJ will seek dismissal of the case.

“It’s been more than 50 years since desegregation happened, and in every school district in the South that we’ve worked with, it’s clear that black students are welcome in every school and that administrators and the community make sure of it,” a DOJ official told the Daily Signal. “It also seems to us that many southerners are tired of being called racist by the media because of things that happened more than 50 years ago.”

Most districts under court orders are in rural Southern towns, and complying with the court orders has entailed responding to several dozen statistical questions from the DOJ Civil Rights Division every few years and filing court motions whenever they want to change their school feeder patterns or build a new high school.

This costs those districts an average of about a few thousand dollars a year on average.

But in a minority of districts, like Huntsville and Jefferson County, Alabama, the cost has been up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees and millions of dollars in other investments.

Schools have had to write extremely detailed statistical reports and adopt woke policies, a DOJ official said.

For example, schools have been forced to selectively hire and recruit black teachers without openly acknowledging it, adopt non-merit-based criteria for identifying students as gifted, change school discipline protocol by not suspending misbehaving students, build new race-based magnet schools, scrap high school construction plans, block student transfers between schools or between school districts unless they are “majority to minority,” and more, according to the official.

DOJ civil rights lawyers even asked about the races of bus drivers and scrutinized high school yearbooks to determine the race of students participating in extracurriculars and selected for homecoming royalty, the official said.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has decided that enforcing labor law is no longer enough. City Hall now wants to get into the business of helping workers organize, too.

Earlier this month, Mamdani created the Mayor’s Office of Worker Power, which his administration describes as the first office of its kind in the country. Its mission is not merely to tell workers what the law says or where to file a complaint. City Hall says it will use its “resources and convening power” to help workers become “informed, connected, and organized.”

That sounds less like a traditional government office and more like a union organizing hub with a city seal on the door.

The concern is not that workers are organizing. They have every right to do so. The question is whether the same government helping them organize can also credibly investigate employers and enforce workplace laws involving those same disputes.

Mamdani’s executive order makes the overlap clear. The new office is supervised by the deputy mayor for economic justice. The order also directs agencies with labor-enforcement responsibilities to share information about workplace violations.

Picture a restaurant owner whose employees are in the middle of an organizing drive. One arm of City Hall is expressly charged with helping workers get “connected and organized.” Another arm of the same government may investigate that restaurant for workplace violations.

Perhaps both offices will behave flawlessly and independently. But why put City Hall in a position where it must prove that its enforcers are not influenced by its organizers?

In the NFL, a referee can explain the rules and call the fouls. Once he starts helping one side draw up the plays, his role has changed.

And employers are not the only ones with reason to care about that distinction. Workers themselves do not all necessarily want the same outcome.

The National Labor Relations Act protects employees who want to organize, but it also protects those who choose not to: The National Labor Relations Board explicitly says workers may decline to participate in union organizing and may campaign against unionization.

So consider a worker who contacts Mamdani’s Office of Worker Power and says, “I don’t want a union.”

Would that worker be referred to an organization that helps employees oppose unionization? Would the office explain that worker’s right to campaign against it? Would it devote the same time and resources to protecting that choice?

Those are fair questions for an office whose public mission emphasizes helping workers to “build power.”

Government unquestionably has a role in enforcing wage laws, punishing retaliation, protecting workers from discrimination, and making sure employers obey the rules. None of that requires the government to stand aside when workers are mistreated.

But enforcing someone’s legal right to organize is different from using public resources to help him organize.

Mamdani’s supporters would presumably respond to such criticism by asserting that employers already have lawyers, money, and institutional resources, while workers often do not. From that perspective, City Hall is helping rebalance the relationship.

That is a policy argument worth debating, particularly since New York’s experiment may not remain a New York story for long.

Other mayors and governors will be watching. If the model catches on, the underlying principle could extend beyond just union organizing.

A city might decide, for example, that tenants need government help organizing against landlords. Another mayor may choose to create an office to help gig workers organize against technology platforms. Once government begins using public resources to assist one side in private disputes, the boundaries inevitably become blurred.

Government must be clear about the line between protecting legal rights and advocating for a particular outcome. New York City is now blurring that line on labor policy, and other cities and states will be watching.

Because once government is both enforcing the rules and helping one side organize, one question becomes difficult to avoid: Who referees the referee?
