Update: 2026-01-03
Description
The Trump administration halts federal child care funds to Minnesota, citing alleged fraud at Somali-run day care centers. This affects one hundred eighty-five million dollars annually, impacting twenty-three thousand kids and twelve thousand families. The freeze comes after a right-wing influencer exposed abuses, and now providers and families must continue operations while investigations unfold. The House Oversight Committee plans a hearing, with more details due from feds by January fifth. The situation leaves families and centers in limbo, potentially affecting any day care with federal aid.
