The pause is the most recent instance of how Trump is harnessing his energy over the federal system to advance his conservative targets.

He additionally stated there are dangers in Trump’s strategy, particularly with so many citizens reliant on Washington.

“You can’t just hassle, hassle, hassle. You’ve got to deliver.”

However there was no clarification of whether or not the pause would have an effect on Medicaid, meals stamps, catastrophe help and different applications. The memo stated it ought to be carried out “to the extent permissible under applicable law.”

“Are you stopping NIH cancer trials?” Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a Democrat from Minnesota, wrote on social media, referring to the Nationwide Institutes of Well being.

A briefing with White Home press secretary Karoline Leavitt, her first, is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET.
