White House cancels health and education funds approved by Congress
Original: White House cancels health, education funds approved by Congress
The White House has moved to cancel federal funding for health and education programs that Congress had already approved, according to Roll Call. The decision raises immediate questions over presidential impoundment powers and is likely to trigger clashes with lawmakers from both parties who authorised the spending. Health providers and schools that were counting on the money face uncertainty over whether the funds will ever be released.
Why now: A direct executive challenge to Congress's control of federal spending is a major political story with wide consequences.
