Wally Zimolong | Pennsylvania Mom Wins Landmark Case, Exposing School DEI Programs and Securing Parental Rights

Wally Zimolong, Vertan Trial Lawyer

Zimolong highlights a landmark case in Pennsylvania where a mom, Ann Trethewey, exposed how public schools have been hiding DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) programs from parents. When her children’s school district refused to release DEI training materials, claiming they were "trade secrets," Trethewey took legal action. A Pennsylvania court ruled in her favor, establishing that taxpayer-funded DEI training must be made public. This case sets an important precedent for parental rights and transparency in education.
