  • A federal appeals court on Tuesday rejected a Trump administration push to reinstate a sweeping pause on federal funding, a decision that comes after a judge found the administration had not fully obeyed an earlier order.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has rejected an attempt by the Trump administration to reinstate spending freezes on grants and loans, as reported by Bloomberg Law. This decision upholds a previous ruling by a lower court which had blocked the Trump administration's efforts to impose these financial restrictions. The case revolves around the administration's attempt to control federal spending through executive action, which was challenged by various groups arguing that such freezes were unlawful and detrimental to the recipients of these funds. The appeals court's decision reinforces the judiciary's role in checking executive overreach in financial policy, ensuring that funds allocated by Congress are disbursed as intended.
