Shaheen and Meeks Denounce Trump Administration's Foreign Military Financing Move
Original: Shaheen, Meeks Denounce Trump Administration’s Unlawful FMF Reprogramming
Senator Jeanne Shaheen and Representative Gregory Meeks, the senior Democrats on the Senate and House foreign affairs committees, have denounced the Trump administration's reprogramming of Foreign Military Financing funds, calling the move unlawful. The two lawmakers, who oversee congressional authority over foreign aid appropriations, argue the administration bypassed legal requirements for congressional notification and approval.
Why now: Lawmakers with oversight of foreign aid spending are publicly challenging the administration's authority to redirect military financing funds without congressional approval.
