One page of a 3 page table showing dollar totals for programs known to have been cut. Trump Action Relevant Agencies Select Examples of Affected Programs Funding in Jeopardy* Executive Order Blocking All Foreign Assistance (EO 14169) Department of State & USAID Life-saving aid, funding to monitor and prevent the spread of infectious diseases that can reach our shores, counterterrorism programs, programs to give U.S. businesses an edge over Chinese and other companies in foreign markets, funds owed to U.S. businesses for services rendered, & more. $30+ billion Action to Block Funding to NGOs Department of Homeland Security Shelter and Services Program, Citizenship and Integration Grants, and Case Management Pilot Program. Hundreds of millions Executive Order Halting Funding for Anything Deemed “DEI” (EO 14151) All agencies Any programs or expenditures the administration deems “woke.” Organizations nationwide are receiving vague “guidance” that funding can’t be spent on DEI without any actual direction on what that means. Scope unknown. The administration has provided little to no clarity over what programs it is blocking (or will block) funding for under this EO. NIH Pause National Institutes of Health Tens of thousands of NIH grant applications and billions in NIH grant funding for lifesaving research across the country are paused. An estimated $1 billion in lifesaving research funding has already been prevented from going out the door to institutions in every state since January 20. Elon Musk & DOGE Actions All agencies Open question. Reports confirm DOGE sought access to central payment system to halt disbursements. ??? Other actions All agencies Unclear scope. ??? TOTAL At least $396 billion

This is @murray.senate.gov's effort to track what Trump has cut. I'd love to crowdsource a way to make this a point of exchange, to collect info from contractors who've gotten cut off, and match it to what she's learning as Appropriations Ranking.

Donald Trump lying about Ukraine starting the war with Russia makes me ashamed to be an American.

I have done a 2 man patrol at night through Fallujah to extract and intubated COVID patients long before a vaccine. I've killed people for America and I've saved people for America.

I am ashamed.

$6.2 billion and PBS and NPR would never need federal funding again.

Put me out of my misery.
