Appeals court lifts blocks on Trump’s orders restricting diversity, equity and inclusion programs
- An appeals court lifted a block on Trump's executive orders aimed at ending government support for diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, marking a victory for the Trump administration amid numerous lawsuits.
- The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals allowed the orders to be enforced while a lawsuit against them continues, overruling a previous injunction by U.S. District Judge Adam Abelson.
- Two judges acknowledged concerns about First Amendment rights related to the orders but agreed that the previous block was too broad and unnecessary.
- The lawsuit, filed by the city of Baltimore and three groups, claims that Trump overstepped by targeting free speech with these orders, which may be unconstitutional.
