#Trump Can Withhold Billions in #Aid, #AppealsCourt Rules
In a 2-to-1 vote, a federal appeals court panel ruled that #ForeignAid groups who sued to recover funds that #Trump froze lacked the legal right to bring the challenge.
The decision, which centered on Trump’s authority to withhold #funding already appropriated by #Congress, handed the White House a significant victory.
