WASHINGTON — "President Donald Trump's administration on Wednesday rescinded an order putting a widespread freeze on most federal grants and loans amid significant criticism, according to a new White House memo a source provided to NBC News.

A senior administration official confirmed the rescission Wednesday, which was ordered by the Office of Management and Budget.

The initial order, which sparked chaos and confusion across Washington, was temporarily halted by a federal district judge Tuesday evening. Democrats, who aggressively pushed back on the White House order, celebrated the rescission of the memo soon after it was reported Wednesday.

"Americans fought back and Donald Trump backed off," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said in a statement. "Though the Trump Administration failed in this tactic, it’s no secret that they will try to find another, and when they do, it will again be Senate Democrats there to call it out, fight back, and defend American families."

All US federal employees have received this e-mail. If they do choose to resign, they will receive 8 months of their current pay in severance. I believe that the expectation is to reduce headcount by 5-10% this way (hopefully more).

They didn't rescind the plan to freeze funding, they only rescinded the memo, which had become fodder for leftist lawfare and malicious leftists within the executive bureaucracy. So instead of a blanket statement, they will simply do the same, just by specifying each program.
