The White House budget office on Wednesday rescinded an order freezing federal grants, according to a copy of a new memo obtained by The Washington Post, after the administration’s move to halt spending earlier this week provoked a backlash.

The new memorandum, just two sentences long, will allow agencies to continue their normal operations after uncertainty over the impact of the initial directive caused widespread chaos across government. It followed a temporary injunction by a federal judge that prevented the original Office of Management and Budget memo from taking effect.

The Trump administration has rescinded his previous order to freeze trillions of dollars of grants and loans. The White House Office of Management and Budget retracted its order from Monday in a memo sent out Wednesday, according to documents obtained by NBC News.
