Legal Question in Employment Law in California

I was recently hired for a school district job. I signed papers, attended an orientation & gave a two week notice to my current employer. It is a school district job in California, with union representation by CSEA. A week and one day after I signed papers & attended the orientation, they called & rescinded their job offer & stated that it had nothing to do with me & that they could put me on the sub list & there are other jobs coming up that I could apply for. This HR rep again reiterated it had nothing to do with me but could not disclose why. I lost my current full time job & benefits (my husband is disabled but recovering from West Nile Neuroinvasive Disease) and I am just wondering if I have any recourse?

If it was a private company, I would say absolutely yes, there would be at least the potential for a recovery. Unfortunately I am pretty sure that a public school district is immune from suit for this. You could check with CSEA to see if they have any say in this.
