特朗普政府已撤销冻结五个蓝州100亿美元儿童保育和社会援助资金的计划——这是其在扣留或削减联邦资金以打击所谓欺诈行为并惩罚被视为对手的行动中遭遇的最新挫折。
冻结计划于今年1月初宣布，当时正值联邦对明尼苏达州联邦社会服务欺诈指控的高调调查，几天后被纽约一名联邦法官叫停。
唐纳德·特朗普总统在其第二任期内将打击欺诈作为重点工作，并将其作为11月中期选举的核心议题，当时共和党正寻求维持对国会的控制。虽然一份政府分析估计，每年因欺诈损失数千亿美元，但特朗普的批评者认为，这些指控在很大程度上带有政治色彩，且往往缺乏证据。
在此次事件中，美国卫生与公众服务部试图切断74亿美元的贫困家庭临时援助计划（TANF）资金，该计划向家庭提供现金援助，同时削减近24亿美元的儿童保育和发展基金资金，以及约8.7亿美元的社会服务整笔拨款资金。
此次行动针对加利福尼亚州、科罗拉多州、伊利诺伊州、明尼苏达州和纽约州，这些州的相关项目服务于大量低收入家庭。
这些州迅速提起诉讼，辩称政府的行动完全出于政治目的，且违反宪法。
在上周致各州的一封信中，卫生与公众服务部表示，各州将不再受限制其获得联邦资金的相关要求约束。同时，该机构还撤回了要求各州提供解释和补充信息的请求，其中包括核查福利是否被不当地发放给了不符合资格的移民。

Trump administration ends attempt to freeze $10B in federal funds for blue states

The Trump administration has rescinded its effort to freeze $10 billion in childcare and social assistance funding for five blue states — the latest setback in its push to withhold or cut federal funding to fight alleged fraud and to punish perceived opponents.
The freeze was announced in early January amid a high-profile federal probe into fraud allegations involving federal social services in Minnesota and was paused by a federal judge in New York days later.
President Donald Trump has focused heavily on combatting fraud in his second term, making it a focal point of the midterm elections in November as Republicans seek to maintain their control of Congress. While one government analysis estimates that hundreds of billions of dollars are lost annually to fraud, the president’s critics argue the accusations are largely political and often lack proof.
In this case, the Department of Health and Human Services had sought to cut off $7.4 billion in funding for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, which provides cash assistance to households, along with nearly $2.4 billion for the Child Care and Development Fund and around $870 million from the Social Services Block Grant.
The action was directed at California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York, where the programs serve many low-income families.
The states quickly sued, arguing the administration’s effort was entirely political, as well as unconstitutional.
In a letter sent to states last week, HHS said they would no longer be subject to the requirements that attempted to restrict their access to federal funding. Also, the agency was withdrawing its requests for justification and additional information, which included looking at whether benefits were improperly provided to ineligible immigrants.
CNN has reached out to HHS for additional information.
