Donald Trump administration freezes nearly $7 billion in federal funding, jeopardizing summer and after-school programs nationwide

The Trump administration has frozen nearly $7 billion in federal education funding, delaying distribution of crucial summer and after-school programs nationwide. This includes $6.8 billion in funds supporting teacher training, migrant education, English learner services, and community learning centers. States like Massachusetts face significant shortfalls, with millions withheld. The freeze threatens programs serving underserved and low-performing schools, while the US Department of Education conducts a review before releasing the funds.
