Trump administration to release funds for after-school, summer programming
UNITED STATES, JUL 18 – The Trump administration released $1.3 billion for after-school and summer programs supporting 1.4 million students amid legal challenges and bipartisan pressure.
- The Trump administration will release $1.3 billion, previously frozen two weeks ago under review, a senior Office of Management and Budget official announced on Friday.
- On July 1, the administration withheld over $6 billion for grants, and OMB's preliminary findings cited gross misuse to promote a radical leftwing DEI agenda.
- Program money covers migrant education, teacher recruitment and training, English proficiency learning and academic enrichment, supporting low-income families and rural communities.

- About $5.6 billion in other K-12 grants remains under OMB review, and states must certify compliance with federal civil rights laws to access those funds.
