California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced April 17 that the state plans to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration for the “dismantling of AmeriCorps.”
According to the nonprofit organization America’s Service Commissions, which supports and provides services to AmeriCorps volunteer programs, approximately 85 percent of AmeriCorps federal staff have been placed on paid administrative leave, and all AmeriCorps NCCC members have been sent home.
