Case Summary

(This summary is temporary while we research the case.) 

On June 30, 2025, several states filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington against the U.S. Department of Education and its Secretary. Plaintiffs challenged the Trump Administration's decision to terminate mental health funding to numerous elementary and secondary schools within their jurisdictions (the "Non-Continuation Decision"). They alleged that Defendants violated the Administrative Procedure Act, the Spending Clause, Separation of Powers, and acted Ultra Vires. They sought declaratory relief under the Declaratory Judgment Act.
