More than 20 states are suing the Trump administration over billions of dollars in frozen education funding for after-school care and summer programs. This funding supports programs at locations like Boys & Girls Clubs and the YMCA for 1.4 million children and teenagers. The administration's freeze allegedly aims to align programs with its priorities, but the lawsuit claims this violates the Constitution and federal laws. Many low-income families risk losing access to these essential programs, particularly as school restarts in late July and August. Some states have taken action to ensure summer programs continue in the interim, but the future of fall after-school programs remains uncertain.
