Trump administration delays release of $6.9bn in federal education funding

On Monday afternoon, the Trump administration announced that it is delaying the release of nearly $6.9bn in federal K-12 education funding scheduled for July 1, affecting programs including Title I-C Migrant Education ($375m), Title II-A Supporting Effective Instruction Grants ($2.2bn), Title III English Language Acquisition Grants ($890m), Title IV-A for academic enrichment ($1.3bn), and Title IV-B 21st Century Community Learning Centers ($1.4bn). It later added that it is also withholding Grant Award Notifications for adult basic and literacy education ($72m). The funds being withheld from the affected programs represent at least 10% of the federal K-12 education spending in 33 states and territories, according to estimates by the Learning Policy Institute, a nonpartisan nonprofit think tank. “The Department remains committed to ensuring taxpayer resources are spent in accordance with the President’s priorities and the Department’s statutory responsibilities,” the Department of Education said in written communications to states about its plans. Although federal law prohibits the executive branch from withholding congressionally appropriated funds unless it gives federal lawmakers an opportunity to approve or reject the move within 45 days, Russell Vought, who Trump appointed to lead the Office of Management and Budget, has said he believes restrictions on impoundment are unconstitutional. It is currently unclear how long the funding delay might last, or when the federal funds might be distributed.
