Summary

Senator Bernie Sanders condemned Trumpā€™s order to freeze all federal loans and grants, calling it a ā€œdangerous move towards authoritarianismā€ and ā€œblatantly unconstitutional.ā€

The directive, exempting Social Security and Medicare, is expected to impact universities, nonprofits, food assistance programs, health centers, and disabled veterans.

Sanders emphasized that Congress holds the ā€œpower of the purseā€ and urged Americans to oppose the order.

Attorneys general are preparing legal challenges to overturn the freeze.
