I urge you to take immediate action against the Trump administration’s unconstitutional freeze on federal financial assistance. The Office of Management and Budget’s directive, issued by acting OMB chief Matthew Vaeth, has temporarily halted funding for critical programs, including school meals, USAID assistance, and wildfire preparedness.
This blatant overreach undermines Congress’s constitutional power of the purse and threatens essential services in Alaska—impacting everything from rural healthcare to infrastructure projects and disaster response. While a federal judge has temporarily blocked the freeze until February 3rd, Congress must act now to prevent further disruption.
Please stand up for Alaskans by opposing this unconstitutional action and demanding the immediate release of these vital funds.
