The Trump administration faced backlash after attempting to cut off federal funds for public loans and grants, causing chaos among those relying on such assistance. A temporary injunction was issued by a district court judge to halt the freeze. While the Office of Management and Budget rescinded the memo that initiated the shut-off, the administration maintains its intent to implement executive orders controlling federal spending. The constitutionality of this move is under scrutiny, with Chief Justice John Roberts previously expressing concerns about the president's authority to impound congressional funds.
"In light of the injunction, OMB has rescinded the memo to end any confusion on federal policy created by the court ruling and the dishonest media coverage."
"The Executive Orders issued by the President on funding reviews remain in full force and effect and will be rigorously implemented by all agencies and departments."
