US halting some Medicaid funding to Minnesota, Vance says
The Trump administration is halting a portion of Medicaid funding to Minnesota due to concerns over theft of federal funds intended for social-welfare programs. Vice President JD Vance announced the suspension on Wednesday.
Officials say the funding pause is linked to investigations into misappropriation of federal dollars allocated for welfare programs in the state.
Details on the amount halted or the specific programs affected were not immediately disclosed.
