Comptroller Sean Scanlon Condemns Trump Administration’s Reckless Suspension Of Federal Funding
HARTFORD, CT) – Comptroller Sean Scanlon today released the following statement on the Trump Administration’s recent memo suspending federal grants, loans, and assistance:
“President Trump’s reckless decision to abruptly freeze federal grants and loans will have immediate and disastrous consequences for Connecticut. As Comptroller, it’s my job to track what we get from Washington D.C. and how we spend it. In fiscal year 2024, more than $14.3 billion passed from the federal government through our state agencies directly to Connecticut residents, nonprofits, schools, and much, much more. While the exact list of impacted programs remains unclear, what is clear is this: any pause, however brief, of any federal funding will hurt people in Connecticut.”
