Trump administration halts $300M in funding for low-income seniors — leaving thousands struggling to survive - Moneywise via MSN

The Department of Labor has refused to release more than $300 million in funding for the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP), leaving thousands of low-income seniors at risk of losing jobs many rely on to survive.

Over 25,000 older workers so far have been furloughed as of early August, according to the National Council on Aging (NCOA).

The Department of Labor has yet to explain the funding delay, but a White House spending proposal back in May criticized the $405 million program as ineffective, accusing it of funneling funds to “leftist, DEI-promoting entities.”

For seniors living on the edge of poverty, the pause in funding can be devastating. Many participants rely on SCSEP wages to cover bills, medical care and food. Plus, there are “countless” others waiting to join the program, says the NCOA.

More examples of Trump "making America great again." By killing everything he gets his grubby little hands on. CRUELTY IS THE POINT.
