A rescissions bill is the president&#8217;s request to rescind funding already appropriated by Congress. Last week, President Trump <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-signs-rescissions-package-foreign-aid-npr-pbs-funding\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">signed<\/a><\/span> a bill clawing back foreign aid, NPR and PBS funding, becoming the first president in decades to receive approval for such a measure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re thrilled that we had the first rescissions package in decades, and we&#8217;ve got the process moving again,&#8221; Vought said of the $10 billion clawback. Asked to confirm there&#8217;d be no rescissions package before September, as Congress attempts to fund the government and head off a shutdown, Vought responded, &#8220;Not here to say that. We&#8217;re looking at all of our options, we will look at it and assess where the Hill is, what are the particular funding opportunities that we have?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked about National Institutes of Health funding for research into heart disease and cancer that has yet to be released, Vought replied, &#8220;We&#8217;re going through the same process with the NIH that we did with the education.&#8221; He alleged NIH had wasted funds, claiming &#8220;$2 million for injecting dogs with cocaine that the NIH spent money on, $75,000 for Harvard to study blowing lizards off of trees with leaf blowers.&#8221; He vowed to go &#8220;line by line to make sure the NIH is funded properly&#8221; and said funding would be released &#8220;when we are done with that review.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Vought&#8217;s use of rescissions measures to amend government spending is seen by Democrats and some Republicans as a backdoor method of infringing on Congress&#8217; constitutional power of the purse.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Rescissions is just a Washington name for double cross,&#8221; Democratic <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/chris-van-hollen-maryland-democrat-face-the-nation-07-27-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Sen. Chris Van Hollen<\/a><\/span> of Maryland, also on &#8220;Face the Nation,&#8221; said after Vought&#8217;s interview on the program. &#8220;They support one thing one day \u2014 the president even signs off \u2014 and then they come back and say they change their mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But the OMB director argued, &#8220;We have the ability and the executive tools to fund less than what Congress appropriated&#8221; under the Impoundment Control Act, which enables the president to delay spending funds appropriated by Congress, and he didn&#8217;t rule out a legal battle over the executive branch&#8217;s authority to revise lawmakers&#8217; spending downward, if it &#8220;could find waste&#8221; by an agency.<\/p>\n<p>Vought has also caused GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune some headaches with a comment he made Thursday suggesting the appropriations process must be &#8220;less bipartisan.&#8221; But this put Thune in a bind as he oversees negotiations to avoid a government shutdown in October, since Republicans hold a slim majority of 53 &#8211; 47 in the Senate, and most legislation must reach a 60-vote threshold.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s going to take 60 to fund the government,&#8221; Thune said in response to Vought&#8217;s remark, and he added, &#8220;we plan to move [appropriations] bills that will have cooperation from the Democrats.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Van Hollen said it was ironic that Vought is &#8220;calling for these deep cuts to education, NIH, when he has asked for an increase for his OMB budget.&#8221; And referring to reduction-in-force \u2014 or RIF \u2014 staff cuts the administration wants across the government, Van Hollen added, &#8220;He asked for a 13% increase for his OMB budget. He&#8217;s asked for more people to join the OMB staff while he&#8217;s talking about RIF-ing people at other departments.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Maryland senator said that Democratic senators, as they negotiate funding government operations, are &#8220;asking for four Republican senators just to publicly declare that when they say they&#8217;re gonna fund the Veterans Affairs Department, that they actually mean it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/vought-wont-rule-out-more-rescissions-funding-cuts-before-september\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought said his office is considering more options to claw back funding approved<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40496,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40495","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Vought won&#039;t rule out more rescissions funding cuts before September - World News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Democratic Sen.
