flag California sues Trump administration to block $4.9B education funding cut over transgender student privacy law.

flag California has sued the Trump administration over a threat to withhold $4.9 billion in federal education funds, arguing the move violates the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and targets its 2024 law, AB 1955, which protects transgender students by prohibiting schools from disclosing their gender identity to parents without consent. flag The state claims the federal government’s demand to require such disclosures is unfounded and politically motivated, asserting FERPA does not mandate disclosure of staff observations or informal notes. flag A federal judge granted a temporary restraining order blocking the funding cuts, citing potential harm to public education, and ordered further proceedings by February 18.
