Trump admin cancels more than $11 billion in mostly blue state projects
"The Democrat shutdown has drained the Army Corps of Engineers' ability to manage billions of dollars in projects,"
"This newly announced pause of preapproved funding for the Army Corps of Engineers projects in blue cities - including Baltimore - is another example of the Trump Administration placing partisan politics over the welfare of the American people,"
"to come"
The Army Corps of Engineers will pause funding to lower-priority projects and consider cancellations affecting projects in New York, San Francisco, Boston, and Baltimore. About $8 billion for climate-related projects in California, Colorado, and Connecticut was canceled. The Department of Transportation funding freeze included $2.1 billion for the Chicago transit system. Corps-owned infrastructure such as the Sagamore Bridge and Bourne Bridge in Massachusetts faces potential impact. The Corps employs roughly 37,000 people and provides engineering services for U.S. infrastructure and military projects abroad. Additional details on pauses and cancellations are expected.
