The ACLU, along with several groups, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to block plans aimed at illegally dismantling the Head Start program, which provides early education and support for low-income children. The program, worth $12 billion annually, could face devastating cuts as part of federal spending reductions. The lawsuit argues the administration's executive actions have already hindered Head Start, and that Congress must approve any significant funding changes. The Trump administration's proposed elimination is anticipated to be outlined in the upcoming 2026 budget proposals, further igniting concerns for its future.
The lawsuit claims the Trump administration cannot illegally dismantle Head Start, a vital federal program funded by Congress, supporting education for America’s poorest children.
Under pressure to cut federal spending, the Trump administration has faced litigation for reducing crucial services provided by Head Start, impacting children in poverty.
