The White House budget office on Wednesday rescinded an order freezing federal grants after the administration’s move to halt spending earlier this week provoked a backlash.

A federal judge temporarily blocked President Donald Trump's freeze of federal funding. Will Medicare, Social Security or Medicaid be affected? Here's what to know.

The order sparked uncertainty over a crucial financial lifeline for states, schools and organizations that rely on trillions of dollars from Washington.

The Trump Administration has ordered a pause on all federal grants and loans, which will take effect at 3 p.m. MT/ 4 p.m. CT on Tuesday, Jan. 28.

The White House Office of Management and Budget circulated a new memo Tuesday afternoon clarifying which programs will be subject to the pause on federal grant funding President Donald Trump ordered Monday night.

The full extent of the order was not immediately clear, but the directive sent to government agencies on Monday threatened to paralyze a vast swath of federal programs.

The Trump administration has rescinded a plan for a sweeping pause on federal grants and loans totaling potentially trillions of dollars after it was temporarily blocked by a federal judge. The push set off panic and confusion across the country and raised the possibility of a constitutional crisis over control of taxpayer money and expansion of executive power.
