States Offered Repayment Alternative Over Misspent Title I Funds
Secret briefings outlined a plan allowing 21 states and Washington, D C to substitute local funds for recalled Title I money instead of repaying the 22.4 million dollars.

Illinois Mississippi and North Carolina face repayments over 3 million each, with South Carolina and Tennessee above 2 million, though negotiations remain possible.
