Minnesota Governor Tim Walz condemned Trump’s freeze on federal funds that state officials say put nearly $2 billion per month for police, health and childcare programs in limbo.

State leaders in Minnesota, including Gov. Tim Walz, addressed President Trump's federal funding freeze​ Tuesday afternoon, calling the move "unprecedented" and "illegal."

The unilateral decision by President Donald Trump to temporarily freeze federal funding already approved by Congress threatens up to $1.9 billion in monthly funding in Minnesota, Gov. Tim Walz said.

The governor's office said the freeze threatens $1.8 billion in federal funds usually allocated to the state each month.

Prominent state leaders in Minnesota, including Gov. Tim Walz, will address President Trump's federal funding freeze set for Tuesday afternoon.
