RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — A federal judge put a temporary pause on President Donald Trump’s order to freeze some federal funds, but it could still impact Virginians.
U.S. District Judge Loren L. AliKhan paused the freeze just minutes before it would go into effect Tuesday afternoon, but the pause will only last until Monday, Feb. 3. If the freeze goes back into effect, it could impact grants and loans for healthcare and education programs, non-profits and Hurricane Helene clean-up. These are all funded by taxpayer dollars.
