Listen "Federal Money Reaches State Accounts After Funding Freeze and NM Congresswoman Wants Assurance ICE Will Recognize Tribal IDs "
Episode Synopsis
No New Mexicans were denied Medicaid or SNAP benefits during the federal funding freeze enacted by President Donald Trump’s administration, according to New Mexico House of Representatives staff — but millions in federal funds were missing from state accounts until Wednesday. And New Mexico’s congressional delegation is pressuring the White House after reports of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents questioning tribal members, as well as a recent comment by President Donald Trump that you can tell some immigrants “could be trouble” by looking at them. Journal Reporter Cathy Cook provides the latest details on the story from Washington.
