GAO says Trump's funding cancellation violates budget law
Original: Trump’s funding cancellation violates budget law, GAO says
The Government Accountability Office has determined that the Trump administration's cancellation of congressionally approved funding violates federal budget law. The finding, reported by Roll Call, adds to legal and political disputes over the White House's handling of appropriated funds. Lawmakers and watchdog groups are expected to press for consequences, though enforcement of such rulings often depends on Congress or the courts.
Why now: A nonpartisan legal authority has ruled against a sitting president's signature budget actions, fueling debate over executive power.
