House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan has introduced legislative proposals aimed at defunding the legal actions pursued by Special Counsel Jack Smith, Atlanta DA Fani Willis, Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, and New York AG Letitia James. The proposals also include provisions to withhold funding for the new FBI headquarters. Jordan's initiative is part of a broader effort to target what he describes as 'politicized prosecutions' against former President Donald Trump. The appropriations package for the 2025 fiscal year includes these measures, reflecting a significant push by Republicans to cut off funding for state and local prosecutors engaged in what they term 'lawfare.'
