Do you know what Executive Order actually paused all the stuff the OMB memo mentioned? The only thing I could find was the one on Jan 20 that "paused" disbursements under the Infrastructure and Inflation Reduction Act. The whole order was called UNLEASHING AMERICAN ENERGY and was about reviewing those disbursements for Marxist things like charging stations.

Seems to me that cutting school lunch funds does the exact opposite of UNLEASHING AMERICAN ENERGY

Is there another broader fund stoppage somewhere?

I meant to paste a copy into the article, it's M-25-14. memo signed by Matthew Vaeth, Acting OMB Director

"OMB Memo M-25-13 is rescinded. If you have questions about implementing the President's Executive Orders, please contact your agency counsel."

No, I meant the “freeze is still in place” order that Leavitt referred to. She claimed it was just the memo, not the stopped funding, that was rescinded.

Or, as Ms. Leavitt said today “This is not a recession of the funding freeze.”"
