A federal judge has temporarily extended a restraining order against the Trump administration's plans to significantly reduce operations at the U.S. Agency for International Development (U.S.A.I.D.). The order stalls a directive that could place a quarter of the agency's workforce on administrative leave and compel overseas employees to return to the U.S. Plaintiffs, represented by two unions, assert the executive order freezing foreign aid and dismantling U.S.A.I.D. operations is unconstitutional. The judge is set to decide on a preliminary injunction to block these actions permanently next week, amidst concerns from lawmakers and aid workers on the changes' legality.
