The US Supreme Court has ordered to unfreeze international aid.

The US Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to pay 2 billion dollars in aid

The US Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration must immediately pay nearly 2 billion dollars in aid that foreign humanitarian organizations have already executed under contracts. Five justices voted for it, three of whom are liberals and two are conservatives. This ruling upheld a lower court judge's decision that the government must adhere to international aid agreements.

The administration disagrees with this decision and claims that the district judge overstepped his authority, and that the decision to release aid should be made by Congress. Several organizations believe that such actions by the administration violate Congress's powers regarding control of public spending.

This is the first final decision of the Supreme Court that prohibits the White House from cutting public spending. Previously, lower courts had also blocked some of the administration's attempts to freeze federal grants and suspend certain programs.

The Trump administration's plans to reduce USAID contracts for foreign aid and allocate less funding for this program were also challenged. Trump shut down USAID operations for 90 days, but later acknowledged that this program may remain, although it will reduce its activities.
