Supreme Court Lets Trump Suspend Grants to Teachers
Briefly

The Supreme Court recently ruled in favor of the Trump administration, allowing a temporary suspension of $65 million in teacher-training grants. This decision, which was split 5 to 4, is viewed as a preliminary victory for the administration in its effort to challenge lower court rulings. The grants, aimed at placing teachers in disadvantaged areas and promoting diversity, were cut after the Education Department asserted they did not align with merit-based criteria. States, including California and New York, have contested the cuts, arguing they jeopardize educational quality in urban and rural districts.
The Trump administration secured a temporary suspension of $65 million in teacher-training grants, with the Supreme Court ruling 5-4 in favor of the administration's argument against diversity initiatives.
