White House freezes $4.9 billion in foreign aid using controversial "pocket rescission" tactic, bypassing Congress.
The White House has used a tactic called "pocket rescission" to freeze $4.9 billion in foreign aid funds without Congress's approval, raising concerns about bypassing legislative authority.
This move, unseen in nearly 50 years, allows the President to rescind funds, potentially undermining Congress's power over the budget.
Critics, including some Republicans, argue the tactic is unconstitutional and could centralize power within the executive branch.
