The Trump administration plans to halt billions of dollars in federal funding for social services programs in five states led by Democrats following allegations of fraud.
The move will freeze $7 billion for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, nearly $2.4 billion for the Child Care Development Fund and roughly $870 million for social services grants that largely benefit children. The states affected are Minnesota, New York, California, Illinois and Colorado.
California gives way, way, way more than we receive when it comes to federal funding. I’m guessing we’re going to halt some of the payments.
Maybe we can just stop paying federal taxes this year.
