Trump Signs Orders Capping Funding for Migrants, Eliminating Regulations

The moves are part of Trump's broader campaign to assert control over independent executive agencies and bolster his Department of Government Efficiency's sweeping government-slashing effort. The actions also target advisory committees and agencies for elimination, including those involved in conflict resolution and community development programs.
