President Donald Trump announced he will use tariff revenue to cover the Women & Infants, and Children Food Program (WIC) during the Schumer Shutdown.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt wrote on X:
The Democrats are so cruel in their continual votes to shut down the government that they forced the WIC program for the most vulnerable women and children to run out this week.Thankfully, President Trump and the White House have identified a creative solution to transfer resources from Section 232 tariff revenue to this critical program.The Trump White House will not allow impoverished mothers and their babies to go hungry because of the Democrats’ political games.
WIC faced money loss due to the government shutdown.
CNN mentioned that the tariffs land in a “general fund managed by the Treasury Department.”
