Boyle Slams Trump Administration Attack on Philadelphia Students

April 29, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02) released the following statement on the Trump administration’s decision to revoke AmeriCorps grant funding to Teach For America Greater Philadelphia: “There’s no better investment than educating and supporting our kids. President Trump’s decision to cut funding for Teach For America in Philadelphia is a disgrace. This program helps hardworking Americans become teachers and has made a real difference for tens of thousands of students in our city. At a time when we need more teachers, not fewer, the last thing we should be doing is pulling support. I’m calling on President Trump to reverse these reckless cuts immediately.” ###
