Arbitrarily freezing and unfreezing funds isn\u2019t government efficiency -- Nevada's kids and families are paying the price for the Administration's political games.\n\n\u201cAdditionally, there are still another $5.5 billion frozen nationwide for education programs. This Administration is intent on dismantling the Department of Education and we won't stop holding them accountable to protect our kids.\u201d\n\nFederal Funding for Nevada Education:\n\nNevada received $97.2 million in federal investments for special education last year, affecting nearly 70,000 Nevada students, including over 40,000 in Clark County.\n\nNevada K-12 schools receive roughly $993 million annually from the DOE. 17% of CCSD\u2019s budget is federally sourced.\n\nNevada has some of the largest class sizes in the country. Dismantling the DOE will make them even larger because educators will be laid off.\n\nOver half of Clark County\u2019s 385 schools receive federal Title I funding and Nevada received nearly $161 million in Title I funding for low-income schools for the 2024-25 school year.\n\n$146.4 million in federal Pell Grants were awarded to NSHE students in 2023-2024.\n\n31,963 NSHE students received Pell Grants in 2023-2024.\n\nNSHE institutions received more than $386 million for federal student aid.\n\nMore Nevada education data can be found HERE.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T14:40:33Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://susielee.house.gov/media/press-releases/congresswoman-lee-responds-release-frozen-grants-supporting-after-school-and"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0513467714190483, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
