WASHINGTON, March 5 (Reuters) - A divided U.S. Supreme Court declined on Wednesday to let President Donald Trump's
administration withhold payment to foreign aid organizations for work
they already performed for the government as the Republican president
moves to pull the plug on American humanitarian projects around the
world.
Handing
a setback to Trump, the court in a 5-4 decision upheld Washington-based
U.S. District Judge Amir Ali's order that had called on the
administration to promptly release funding to contractors and recipients
of grants from the U.S. Agency for International Development and the
State Department for their past work.
TYPICAL TRUMP: NOT paying for work already done.
