(Harrisburg, PA) According to an announcement from Governor Josh Shapiro on Monday, Pennsylvania joined over 20 other states and the District of Columbia in a lawsuit against the Trump administration. This is because of a funding freeze with public schools getting owed a price of $230 million.  The money helps to fund job and literacy readiness programs, recruitment and training for teachers, before and after school programs and a spectrum of educational services.
