New York federal Judge Edgardo Ramos issued a preliminary injunction in the case that 18 states and the District of Columbia filed to get the extension on ESSER funding back:
...Education Department is prohibited from enforcing the cancellation of funding under the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief program during the litigation or until a further court order. The reprieve only applies to the states that sued for access to the funds.
For Massachusetts, this should mean that the state can go back to drawing down those funds against the federal government; you might remember that DESE has continued to allow districts to draw down their funds against the state.
