A federal judge has issued an indefinite block on the Trump administration's freeze of federal funding, deeming the move hasty and irrational. Judge Loren AliKhan criticized the attempt to halt hundreds of billions in federal grants and loans, stating that the administration expected agencies to review compliance within an unrealistic timeframe. Previous rulings by another judge also mandated the restoration of funding, which the administration appealed but was denied. This crisis arose from lawsuits filed by nonprofit organizations and state attorneys general against the administration's decision.
A judge ruled that the Trump administration's attempt to freeze federal funding was 'irrational' and warranted an indefinite block due to its impracticality.
The federal funding freeze, viewed as an effort to instigate a review of grants overnight, was described by Judge AliKhan as 'almost unfathomable' in scope.
