What happened

Well supportedReported by 3 independent outlets

A federal judge granted a preliminary injunction preventing the U.S. Department of Agriculture from withholding tens of billions of dollars in federal funds from states. This action was sought by Democratic attorneys general from 20 states and the District of Columbia. The funds were contingent on compliance with the Trump administration’s policies regarding immigration enforcement and transgender issues.
