State leaders in Minnesota, including Gov. Tim Walz, addressed President Trump's federal funding freeze​ Tuesday afternoon, calling the move "unprecedented" and "illegal."

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz condemned Trump’s freeze on federal funds that state officials say put nearly $2 billion per month for police, health and childcare programs in limbo.

The unilateral decision by President Donald Trump to temporarily freeze federal funding already approved by Congress threatens up to $1.9 billion in monthly funding in Minnesota, Gov. Tim Walz said.

Governor Tim Walz, Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan, and Attorney General Keith Ellison visited a YMCA and their child program while responding to President Donald Trump’s implementation of a federal spending freeze.

A federal judge has blocked a federal funding freeze ordered by the Trump administration, but not before Minnesota leaders could react to its possible implications.

U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin says she will "fight it at every step," in regards to President Donald Trump's plan to pause federal funding.

Prominent state leaders in Minnesota, including Gov. Tim Walz, will address President Trump's federal funding freeze set for Tuesday afternoon.

The governor's office said the freeze threatens $1.8 billion in federal funds usually allocated to the state each month.
