President Trump is using what's known as a pocket rescission
to cancel nearly $1 billion in federal funding approved by Congress.
NPR's Ava Pukac reports.
The timing of the move just days before the fiscal year ends means Congress
won't likely have time to address the cuts before they go into effect.
The White House says the cuts focus on, quote, wasteful and harmful government spending.
A majority of the cuts are to programs at the Department of Health and Human Services.
Others target education programs for migrant students
