  • A U.S. judge on Monday extended a pause on the Trump administration's plan to freeze federal loans, grants and other financial assistance, saying it appeared to have "run roughshod" over Congress's authority over government spending.

A U.S. federal judge has extended a temporary block on former President Donald Trump's plan to freeze federal grants and loans, which was part of his broader initiative to reduce federal spending. This decision by Judge Beryl Howell of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia came in response to a lawsuit filed by several states and organizations arguing that the freeze would cause immediate and irreparable harm. The injunction, initially set to expire, has now been extended to allow more time for legal arguments to be presented. The policy in question aimed at withholding funds from certain programs, including education and housing, which critics argue would disproportionately affect lower-income communities and minority groups. The case continues to unfold as both sides prepare for further legal proceedings.
