flag North Carolina sues the U.S. Department of Education over sudden cancellation of $50 million in grants for rural and low-income schools.

flag North Carolina has sued the U.S. Department of Education over the abrupt termination of nearly $50 million in federal grants for rural and low-income schools, alleging the move violates federal law and the Constitution. flag The funds, part of the Full-Service Community Schools program, supported 55 schools across 18 districts, providing services like mental health care, food assistance, and after-school programs. flag Attorney General Jeff Jackson said the Department cut the grants without notice or justification, despite no allegations of misconduct, and that schools relied on the funding to maintain programs and staff. flag The lawsuit argues the decision undermines congressional authority over federal spending.
