NC Attorney General Jeff Jackson informed public this week that Dept of Ed. sent emails to all 50 states saying that expected payments for elementary and secondary schools would not be sent out as planned. NC's allocation was supposed to have been $167 million. He said that the shortfall could cause loss of 1,000 teachers and staff in NC alone.

Lawsuit is pending since this is money Congress allocated and schools were planning on for their upcoming school year budgeting.
