401k match cut by half due to inflation

I know this isn't the worst thing that could happen, as someone who's been furloughed/laid off with three different employers (will I ever not be at the bottom of the totem pole?), but today I was notified our 401k match is being cut from 6% down to 3% “due to inflation”. I immediately lowered my contribution to 3% so that they are matching everything I put in. It's just frustrating on top of already not getting a raise this year and student loan payments starting next month.
