NYC Sues Trump Administration Over Magnet School Funds
New York City officials are suing the Trump administration over its decision to block $47 million in education funds for public magnet schools.
The federal Department of Education announced last month that it would withhold the money due to the city's policies regarding trans students, which allow them to play sports and use facilities that align with their gender expression.
- The city's rules follow state guidelines, protected by the state's human rights law.
- The funding was awarded to support curriculum development at 19 magnet schools over five years.
The city’s policies regarding trans students allow them to play sports and use locker rooms and bathrooms that align with their gender expression.
Mayor Eric Adams’ office announced the new lawsuit, aiming to restore the funding for NYC magnet schools.
