美国司法部削减了向当地警察和非营利机构提供的数百笔公共安全赠款,影响到社区暴力干预方案。 The US Justice Department has cut hundreds of public safety grants to local police and nonprofits, affecting community violence intervention programs. 这些赠款共计约5亿美元,在4月下旬被取消,使各组织急于寻求其他供资办法。 The grants, totaling around $500 million, were canceled in late April, leaving the organizations scrambling for alternative funding. Trump行政当局指出,它没有与其优先事项保持一致,而拜登行政当局以前通过《两党加强社区安全法》支持这些方案,在五年内拨款2.5亿美元。 The Trump administration cited a lack of alignment with its priorities, while the Biden administration had previously supported these programs through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, allocating $250 million over five years. 批评者认为,削减资金的决定是在没有评估方案效果的情况下作出的。 Critics argue that the decision to cut funding was made without evaluating the programs' effectiveness. 司法部表示,它致力于审理上诉,以酌情恢复供资。 The DOJ stated it is committed to hearing appeals to restore funding where appropriate.
