Trump Administration Halts $10B in Funding for 5 States Over Non-Citizen Benefits Concerns

The Trump administration plans to halt over $10 billion in federal funding for child care and social services to five Democrat-led states due to concerns that taxpayer dollars are being diverted to support non-citizens. The move is part of an effort to crack down on what officials claim is improper use of public funds. The affected states include California, New York, Maryland, Connecticut, and Vermont. Funding for the programs will be frozen pending an investigation into the allegations.
