  • The White House is taking drastic measures to control trillions of federal dollars by ordering a freeze on all federal grants and loans so the Trump administration can review government spending.

The article from KXLF News discusses an action taken by the Trump administration during its first 100 days in office. On January 20, 2017, the Trump administration issued a memo directing a temporary halt on all new federal grants and loans.

The memo specifically targeted new applications for grants and loans, leaving existing commitments untouched.
