据美国行政管理和预算局发言人透露，特朗普政府计划取消国会已拨款的8.1亿美元资金，用于难民、移民及其他服务项目，特朗普政府称这些项目“不必要”。
此次被称为“口袋撤销案”的削减提案，以通知信函形式由特朗普提交给众议院议长迈克·约翰逊，涉及美国商务部、教育部、卫生与公众服务部、国土安全部、住房和城市发展部以及司法部的多项拨款撤销提议，其中多笔削减针对国际援助项目。
白宫方面称，特朗普总统此举旨在削减“最具危害性的政府开支”，但部分议员批评这是绕过国会权限的非法“单项否决”。白宫提交撤销提案后，相关资金将被暂停拨付，国会有45天时间采取行动。但鉴于财年将于9月30日结束，这实际上相当于直接取消了这些资金。
其中一项撤销提案计划取消少数族裔企业发展局项目5000万美元拨款中的1000万美元，特朗普政府称这笔拨款是用于“违宪的基于种族的目的”。
通知信函中写道：“少数族裔企业发展局的赠款项目根据种族向企业发放拨款。分裂性和歧视性项目是该局核心使命的一部分，这也是2027财年预算提案提议撤销该机构的原因。”
另一项撤销提案则计划取消难民和入境者援助账户的5.67亿美元拨款，该账户资金用于资助卫生与公众服务部下属的难民安置项目。
白宫辩称，鉴于特朗普的边境政策遏制了越境人数，该办事处“资金过剩”。难民通常需经过 extensive背景审查，通过与国务院合作的非政府组织网络进入美国。
部分撤销提案收回了国土安全部的资金，其中包括用于“替代拘留案件管理试点项目”的1500万美元，该项目为处于移民海关执法局监管下但未被拘留的人员提供案件管理服务。政府辩称此举将“消除不必要且浪费的开支”。此外，美国公民及移民服务局的公民身份与融合赠款项目将被削减1000万美元，该项目旨在帮助合法永久居民学习英语和美国历史，以顺利成为美国公民。特朗普政府表示，国土安全部“已暂停”该项目，并“取消了往年已拨付的赠款”。
共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯在X平台发文称，此次口袋撤销案“表明行政管理和预算局故意扣留这些资金数月，以非法取消两党批准并签署生效的拨款”。
“任何未经国会批准撤销已拨付资金的行为都是明显的违法之举，”柯林斯写道，“我将与同僚合作应对这些非法行动。”
民主党参议员杰夫·默克利将口袋撤销案称为“非法的单项否决”，并呼吁共和党同僚设身处地想一想，如果民主党总统采取同样行动，他们会作何感想。
“他正在取消自己不喜欢的开支项目。这违反了我们宪法中核心的分权原则，即由国会而非总统决定设立哪些项目以及拨款规模，”默克利说道。
但这并非白宫首次取消国会已批准的资金。
去年，白宫通过《预算扣押控制法案》以口袋撤销案形式取消了49亿美元对外援助拨款，称赞特朗普利用了“长期被忽视的总统权力”。吉米·卡特是上一位在1977年采取此类行动的总统。
白宫为其收回已拨付资金的举措辩护。
白宫在一份声明中表示：“去年，特朗普总统采取了历史性举措，利用《预算扣押控制法案》赋予他的长期被忽视的总统权力，实施了50年来首次‘口袋撤销案’。今年，他继续致力于为美国纳税人谋利，通过口袋撤销案削减近10亿美元最具危害性的政府开支。”

Trump admin cancels funding for refugees, immigrants and others in move lawmakers argue is illegal

The Trump administration is moving to cancel $810 million of funding that has been appropriated by Congress for refugees, immigrants and other services it argues are unnecessary, according to a spokesperson for the Office of Management and Budget.
In what is called a pocket rescission, the package of proposed cuts, sent from Trump to House Speaker Mike Johnson in a notification letter, includes proposed rescissions at the Departments of Commerce, Education, Health and Human Services, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development and the Justice Department. Several cuts were for international assistance programs.
The White House argues that President Donald Trump is targeting “the most harmful government spending,” though some lawmakers are criticizing the move as an illegal “line item veto” that bypasses Congressional authority. Once the rescissions are submitted by the White House, the funds are paused while Congress has 45 days to act. But given the fiscal year ends on September 30, it sets the funds up to essentially be canceled.
One of the proposed rescissions seeks to cancel $10 million of the $50 million for Minority Business Development Agency programs, which the Trump administration claims are funds appropriated for “unconstitutional race-based purposes.”
“The MBDA grant programs direct grants to businesses based on race. Divisive and discriminatory programs are at the core mission of MBDA, which is why the FY 2027 Budget request proposed to eliminate the agency,” the notification letter said.
Another rescission cancels $567 million for the Refugee and Entrant Assistance account, which funds Office of Refugee Resettlement programs under HHS.
The White House argued that the office is “overfunded,” given that Trump’s border policies have curbed border crossings. Refugees typically enter the US after extensive background checks through a network of non-government organizations working with the State Department.
Some of the rescissions pull back funds for DHS, including the $15 million for the Alternatives to Detention-Case Management Pilot Program that provides case management services for people under Immigration and Customs Enforcement supervision but are not detained. The administration argued that the move would “eliminate unnecessary and wasteful spending.” Another $10 million would be cut from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Citizenship and Integration grant program meant to help lawful permanent residents learn English and about US history on their way to becoming US citizens. The Trump administration said DHS “has already paused” the program and “cancelled previously awarded grants from prior years.”
Republican Sen. Susan Collins said in an X post that the pocket rescission “shows that OMB intentionally withheld these funds for months to execute this unlawful cancellation of appropriations that were approved on a bipartisan basis and signed into law.”
“Any effort to rescind appropriated funds without congressional approval is a clear violation of the law,” Collins wrote. “I will work with my colleagues to address these illegal actions.”
Calling pocket rescissions “an illegal line item veto,” Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley urged his Republican colleagues to consider how they would feel about a Democratic president doing the same.
“He is canceling the lines of spending he doesn’t like. This violates the core separation of powers embedded in our constitution in which it is the Congress, not the president, who decides what programs are designed and at what level they are funded,” Merkley said.
But this is not the first time the White House has canceled funds that Congress had already approved.
The White House lauded Trump’s use of “long-neglected Presidential authorities,” also through the Impoundment Control Act to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid through a pocket rescission last year. Jimmy Carter was the last president to do so in 1977.
The White House defended its effort to claw back the appropriated funds.
“Last year, President Trump took the historic step of utilizing long-neglected Presidential authorities provided to him under the Impoundment Control Act to deploy the first ‘pocket rescission’ in 50 years. This year, he is continuing his commitment to the American taxpayer by utilizing a pocket rescission for another nearly $1 billion of the most harmful government spending,” the White House said in a release.
