On Wednesday, the top court upheld a lower court ruling ordering the administration to release the funds to contractors and grant recipients of the US Agency for International Development and the State Department.

Since taking office, President Donald Trump has cut numerous aid programmes and placed most USAID staff on leave or dismissed them.

Aid agencies argue these actions have jeopardised life-saving operations worldwide.

tldr: Four Supreme Court justices think it's okay for the US government to not pay bills for services already rendered.

Addendum: that probably should read as "Trump government". I doubt the Supreme Court would have come to the same ruling for the Biden administration.
