[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This seems like something that should be fought in court. [/quote] There's nothing to fight, Congress is just passing a spending bill. It doesn't have language in it that it usually has that would have allowed the District to keep spending locally raised money even though Congress never formally passed its 2025 budget. Unlike every actual federal agency that's funded through the CR, D.C. already has an existing budget for this fiscal year (the funds come from us, not from Congress). But we can't sue Congress to require them to write the law differently, and Congress isn't the one cutting DCPS funding -- the city is doing that, in response to the overall budget being cut back to FY2024 levels.[/quote]
