Trump instructs agencies to redirect WHO funds to other groups

The White House Office of Management and Budget has told federal agencies to reroute money for the World Health Organization to other humanitarian aid and health groups.

President Trump announced last week he will halt funding to the organization, which constitutes roughly 10% of their overall budget, over the group's response to the coronavirus.

The WHO has a $4.8 billion budget, of which the United States is the largest contributor, and the Trump administration is seeking to reduce the amount Congress delegated to the agency in 2020 by about $50 million. The U.S. also voluntarily gives between $100 million and $400 million in additional funding to the organization for various projects.

A senior administration official confirmed to the Washington Examiner on Tuesday that the OMB "has been working to provide options for stopping the funds."
