北卡罗来纳州起诉美国教育部突然取消5 000万美元的农村和低收入学校补助金。 North Carolina sues the U.S. Department of Education over sudden cancellation of $50 million in grants for rural and low-income schools.

北卡罗来纳州因联邦向农村和低收入学校提供的近5 000万美元的赠款突然终止而起诉美国教育部,声称这一行动违反了联邦法律和宪法。 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. 该基金是全面服务社区学校方案的一部分,为18个区的55所学校提供支助,提供精神保健、粮食援助和课后方案等服务。 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. Jeff Jackson总检察长说,尽管没有关于不当行为的指控,但该部在没有通知或理由的情况下削减赠款,而且学校依靠资金来维持方案和工作人员。 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. 诉讼辩称,这项决定破坏了国会对联邦开支的权威。 The lawsuit argues the decision undermines congressional authority over federal spending.
