California is suing the federal government for the release of over $6 billion in education funding, including $939 million owed to the state that the Trump administration allegedly withheld. This funding supports programs for disadvantaged children, migrant farmworker children, and English-language tutoring. Attorney General Rob Bonta stated that Trump's actions violated the U.S. Constitution and federal statutes. The state argues that it was set to receive this funding when its new budget went into effect on July 1.
"There is no invasion. There is no rebellion. The President is trying to manufacture chaos and crisis on the ground for his own political ends," California Attorney General Rob Bonta said.
