WASHINGTON, D.C. (WNAX) – President Trump has said he would halt U.S. funding of the World Health Organization because of how they handled the COVID-19 outbreak.

South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds says the U.S. funds a large portion of that international organization.

Rounds says there was a failure in notifications.

Rounds says he supports the President in holding up funding until there is a review.

The World Health Organization was created at the end of World War Two and is based in Geneva Switzerland.
