The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has rescinded a memo that had ordered a temporary pause on federal funding, including grants, loans, and other financial assistance programs. This decision reverses a directive issued by the Trump administration, which had sparked widespread confusion and backlash across the country. The original memo, which was in effect for just one day, was halted by a federal district judge before its rescission. The move to rescind the memo came after significant political uproar and confusion among recipients of federal grants, highlighting tensions over the Trump administration's approach to federal spending.
