Voice of America (VoA) is set to restart broadcasts soon after a federal appeals court temporarily stayed an executive order that had aimed to dismantle the agency following a move by the Trump administration. This order had significant implications, affecting the operations of several outlet networks under the US Agency for Global Media. A preliminary injunction previously ruled the executive order arbitrary, and the recent court decision allows VoA staff to return to work next week. However, other public broadcasters remain affected by a funding freeze still imposed during the legal proceedings.
Voice of America can resume broadcasting after a federal appeals court granted a temporary stay on an executive order aimed at dismantling the agency.
The ruling by the appeals court allows VoA to return to programming while legal discussions on the executive order continue.
VoA's return comes after a preliminary injunction found that the executive order undermined the agency's established authority.
While VoA is reinstated, funding freezes affecting other USAGM broadcasters like Radio Free Europe and Radio Free Asia remain in effect.
