Listen "Headlines: What’s Going on in Washington"
Episode Synopsis
On this week’s “Headlines” edition of the Imprint Weekly Podcast, we dive into Trump administration’s reduction of the federal workforce focused on children and families, and hundreds of millions of dollars in grants terminated at the Department of Justice. Then we turn to what early indications are in regard to the future of federal spending, including Republican plans for a reconciliation bill and Trump’s proposed budget for 2026, We also talk about new federal data on youth in foster care, which shows the total continues to decline.
