The Trump administration has canceled $810 million in congressionally approved spending through a "pocket rescission," a rarely used budget maneuver that Congress and the GAO say exceeds presidential authority. About $567 million of the cuts hit HHS programs supporting refugees and non-citizens, with the rest affecting migrant student education, international education programs, and diversity initiatives. Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins condemned the move as an attempt by the Office of Management and Budget "to undermine Congress's Constitutional power of the purse," and says she is now exploring legislation to ban pocket rescissions in the next spending bill.
