against New York City, the Department of Education , and Schools Chancellor David Banks. The group is demanding an injunction to halt the $215 million budget cuts to public schools planned for next year.
“What the chancellor did, as chancellors have done for the past 12 out of 13 years, is to issue an emergency declaration. Which is a power the chancellor has in the event of an emergency which would authorize the budget to go forward if they couldn’t call a meeting,” said Education Law Attorney for Advocates for Justice Laura D. Barbieri, 63.
She maintains that there was no mention of the ‘emergency’ being COVID-19 or pandemic related. Council members, who largely voted yes on the adopted budget except for a handful of members, are apparently regretful about their decisions and eager to walk it back should there be another vote, said Barbieri.
