Magaziner Statement on President Trump's Withdrawal of his Illegal Executive Order Cutting off Federal Funding

January 29, 2025

“Nevertheless, the fight is not over. We continue to hear reports of service providers unable to access federal funds they are entitled to, and we must continue to oppose any Trump Administration effort to deny funding to vital programs that Rhode Islanders are entitled to.”
