The $810 million in illegal cuts comes from the bipartisan-passed Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations legislation, rescinding millions from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, Office of Minority Health, Special Programs for Migrant Students, and International Education. “President Trump knows well what the law says – the one I wrote with my Republican colleagues – but he is blatantly breaking it and stealing the money from the American people. Money that is supposed to be invested in groundbreaking health care research, chronic disease screening, home nursing visits, fresh food, and public education,” said Senator Baldwin. “President Trump always has enough money for his war, his ballroom, and all his other vanity projects, but when it comes time for American families, he leaves them out to dry. My Republican colleagues, who wrote and voted for this very law, need to stand up for the families and stop this President from illegally taking their money. On top of all of this, the Trump administration and Congressional Republicans undermining bipartisan budget agreements like this will only lead to more wasteful government shutdowns, when one side breaks the deal months later.” | 1 | 2026-09-26T09:43:57Z | 2026-09-26T09:44:55Z |
