Trump Signs Executive Order to Cut Federal Funds for Undocumented Migrants

In a significant policy move, U.S. President Donald Trump has signed an executive order aimed at identifying and cutting federal funds allocated to undocumented migrants, the White House announced.

According to an official fact sheet released on Wednesday, the order directs all federal departments and agencies to review their programs and pinpoint any that provide financial benefits to undocumented immigrants. The objective is to take corrective action where necessary.

The executive order also ensures that federal funds granted to states and local governments will not be used to support "sanctuary" policies or aid illegal immigration in any way, the document stated.
