Trump cancels nearly $1 billion in bipartisan Congress-approved funding for immigrant services

President Donald Trump is canceling nearly $1 billion in bipartisan Congress-approved spending via a rare contested power, the White House said Friday, targeting immigrant services including nonprofits for refugees and unaccompanied minors. The administration cites reduced border crossings. Republican Sen. Susan Collins, Senate Appropriations chair, said the move came without warning and called it an illegal impoundment and usurpation of Congress's appropriations power.
