Leaders bring federal funding concerns to Larsen at Everett roundtable
EVERETT — Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Everett, heard concerns from community leaders Thursday about the recent White House attempt to pause many federal grants and loans.
Leaders from a variety of groups gathered at Everett Station to share the programs they’re worried may be in jeopardy under the Trump administration.
After the memo leaked Monday night, officials throughout the county scrambled to figure out what it could mean for the services they provide.
On Wednesday, the White House rescinded the funding pause memo after a federal judge temporarily blocked it Tuesday evening.
