Gov. Shapiro files lawsuit against Trump agencies for withholding $2.5 billion in federal aid, claiming unconstitutional actions amidst ongoing legal challenges.
Overview
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro has sued the Trump administration, alleging it is unlawfully withholding $2.5 billion in federal funding previously approved by Congress. Despite court rulings mandating the release of these funds, Shapiro claims the Trump administration continues to ignore these orders, jeopardizing vital state programs. The lawsuit targets federal agencies for what Shapiro describes as 'flagrantly lawless' behavior, halting funding essential for public health, clean energy, and rural job creation. The administration argues that the freeze is necessary to reassess spending based on executive orders, but faces increasing legal challenges from various states.
