Description

BREAKING:  The White House is pausing federal grants and loans starting Tuesday as President Donald Trump’s administration begins an across-the-board ideological review of its spending, causing confusion and panic among organizations that rely on Washington for their financial lifeline.

GREEN WATCH:  Egg prices have steadily risen in recent months due to a spike in bird flu; outbreaks in egg-laying chickens are affecting the national supply, driving up costs.

SPOTLIGHT:   Rapper DJ Unk, who was best known for the bouncy early-2000s crunk hit "Walk It Out," has died at age 43.

MORE NEWS:  Social media posts have suggested that President Trump moved to end the official observance of Black History Month, but there is currently no official order or directive to literally “cancel” Black History Month from the President.

FEATURE:  Over 42.1 million Americans, about 13% of all families, receive SNAP benefits. More than 1 in 4 of the households enrolled in the program include someone who is earning at least some income.
