President Trump canceled nearly $1 billion in leftover federal funding Friday night, targeting DEI programs and aid for illegal immigrants in a rare pocket rescission that has drawn sharp pushback. The White House moved Friday evening to strip back $810 million in unspent money already approved by Congress, hitting immigration and refugee accounts, foreign debt-relief efforts, grants for minority-owned businesses, and assorted research and education programs. Washington Examiner reporting described the action as a “pocket” rescission, only the second such move in 50 years, and the second issued by Trump in his second term. Officials said most of the canceled dollars had been rooted in aiding illegal immigrants or propping up diversity,…Open

How many times has President Trump used a pocket rescission during his second term?
This move represents the second time President Trump has issued a pocket rescission during his second term; his first cut using this method was nearly $1 billion overall.
Q&A ID 7fff3967-1187-4102-8e88-7130efedb5a9
What are the arguments regarding the legality of using a pocket rescission?
Senator Susan Collins of Maine and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) have argued that the maneuver is unlawful and undermines Congress's Constitutional power of the purse, specifically citing the Impoundment Control Act. Conversely, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) maintains that the maneuver is allowed.

Why is the timing of this pocket rescission significant in relation to the federal fiscal year?
The rescission occurred close to the September 30 end of the fiscal year. This timing is the purpose of a pocket rescission, as it allows the White House to hold the funds and wait out the clock so the dollars lapse before Congress has time to reverse the action.
Q&A ID 77023bf8-ac77-4394-a170-a7d37b857255
