Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) and other New Jersey Democrats have urged the Office of Management and Budget and the Department of Education to clarify the Trump Administration’s decision to withhold nearly $7 billion in funding for K-12 and adult education programs. They argue this action disrupts planning and jeopardizes the upcoming school year.
In their letter, the lawmakers highlighted that over $162 million is at stake for New Jersey schools, with significant repercussions for high-need districts. They stated that the funding freeze could result in budget shortfalls, program cuts, and layoffs, stressing the need for a prompt release of these funds.
The letter was cosigned by several New Jersey representatives, asserting that the funding is critical for various educational needs, including teacher training and student support. They expressed concern about the lasting impact on students and communities if the funds remain withheld.
