I am writing to urgently request your action in response to the Trump administration's recent decision to halt all federal grants.
According to reports from independent journalist Marisa Kabas and The Washington Post, the Office of Management and Budget has imposed a political screening process on federal grants, blocking potentially trillions of dollars in funding for vital projects nationwide.
These funds support critical programs in healthcare, education, social services, research, and more.
This move, which aligns with the agenda of OMB Director nominee Russ Vought, poses a serious threat to our communities and institutions.
I strongly urge you to take immediate action to restore these funds and oppose Vought’s confirmation. This political interference in the distribution of federal grants could have devastating consequences for people across the country.
Please make it a priority to address this issue and ensure that federal grant funding is protected and not subjected to political agendas. Your leadership on this matter is crucial.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent issue.
