What happened

Well supportedReported by 7 independent outlets

The White House announced the rescission of over $800 million in congressionally appropriated funds across multiple government programs. President Donald Trump invoked authority under the Impoundment Control Act to deploy a 'pocket rescission' of these funds. The proposed cuts, which include programs at the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Education, were submitted to Congress for a 45-day review period.
