Health Clinics Face Cuts and Closures

NBC News: “Across the country, health clinics and nonprofit organizations largely serving rural and low-income patients have found themselves unable to access previously allocated federal funds, as a short-lived government funding freeze has continued to disrupt daily operations for a range of programs.”

“The disruption appears to stem from a vaguely worded, two-page memo the Office of Management and Budget sent to all federal agencies early last week directing them to ‘temporarily pause all activities related to obligation or disbursement of all Federal financial assistance’ that could conflict with President Donald Trump’s agenda.”
