US judge blocks Trump from shuttering three small federal agencies

  • A federal judge in Rhode Island temporarily blocked President Trump’s March 14 executive order to shrink three agencies drastically.
  • The order required these agencies to cut staff and eliminate all programs not mandated by law, prompting a lawsuit by 21 states.
  • The affected organizations include those that provide funding for libraries, assist with resolving labor disputes, and offer support for minority-owned business initiatives.
  • Judge John McConnell called the order "arbitrary and capricious," stating Trump cannot unilaterally end funding for the congressionally established agencies.
  • The ruling prevents the cuts, which states say risk hundreds of millions in grants and harm public services such as braille libraries and veteran support programs.
