Grants to reimburse school legal costs
If enacted, the bill would create a federal grant program to help covered local educational agencies pay legal costs. Grants would reimburse costs, including attorneys' fees and court costs, when an appeal or reconsideration follows an LEA decision not to discontinue an instructional or school library material. Each qualifying determination could receive up to $100,000. The program would be funded by a $15 million authorization for fiscal years 2027 through 2031. Grants would only cover costs not already paid by a State or any other person, and LEAs would need to apply to the Secretary. Awards must be made using content-neutral and viewpoint-neutral criteria.
