N.C. Attorney General Wins Injunction to Support Western N.C.
RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCT) — Attorney General Jeff Jackson won a court order blocking AmeriCorps from unlawfully ending job and recovery grants in Western North Carolina. According to a press release, 'On April 15, AmeriCorps ordered more than 50 full-time volunteers to stop working on Helene recovery in western North Carolina, as part of terminating more than 750 volunteers working nationwide for the National Civilian Community Corps. On April 25, North Carolina was notified that AmeriCorps would immediately stop funding 10 volunteer organizations funded through the NC Commission on Volunteerism and Community Service, including several serving hard-hit communities in western North Carolina. On April 29, Attorney General Jackson joined a coalition of 23 other attorneys general suing AmeriCorps for not administering grants that Congress had already appropriated.' On Thursday, June 5th, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted a preliminary injunction and restored all programs that had been terminated in N.C. while the case continues. 'A federal judge found that the actions were unlawful because Congress explicitly required that the agency provide advance notice and an opportunity to comment on an any major changes to AmeriCorps services.' 'Western North Carolina will get the funds it needs so AmeriCorps members can keep helping people, keep cleaning up after Helene, and rebuild their homes and neighborhoods,' said Attorney General Jeff Jackson. 'The people in western North Carolina can keep rebuilding while I keep fighting this case.' A copy of the preliminary injunction is available here. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
