Headline: Governing, 1/30/2025
In Brief:
The White House rescinded its order to freeze federal grants and loans. The order had received legal and political blowback — but not from Republicans.
Most GOP governors stayed silent on the issue, but a few issued statements praising the idea of reviewing federal spending. Some did worry that the projected pause could have disrupted programs had it lasted too long. This may be a prelude to budget debates to come.
Red states are particularly reliant on federal aid and Republican leaders may object to cuts that hurt their constituents.
Even Governing is hedging its bets on this one!
