The Application

History

RFE/RL challenges USAGM's refusal to disburse appropriated funds, arguing the freeze exceeds executive authority and violates statutory requirements that appropriated funds be obligated and spent.

The Conclusion

The case remains active before Judge Lamberth; resolution depends on whether the executive action to freeze funds exceeds constitutional and statutory constraints on spending power.
