Education Department Releases Frozen Grants for After-School Programs

This is a partial reversal of previous funding freezes, representing administrative course correction rather than constitutional damage. A-score minimal: rule_of_law (1) for temporary disruption of appropriated funds, separation (2) for executive control over congressionally authorized spending, civil_rights (1) for brief educational access impact. Resource_reallocation mechanism adds 15% but severity multipliers reduce (0.8 durability/reversibility as action is being undone, 0.9 precedent as reversal weakens any precedent). Final A=0.75. B-score low-moderate: some media interest in reversal story, timing suggests responsive action. Both scores well below thresholds, no clear mechanism for lasting constitutional harm, fits administrative noise pattern.
