US EditionJudge orders Trump administration to reinstate Education Department employees
- On Thursday, a federal judge in Boston issued a preliminary order preventing the Trump administration from proceeding with large-scale layoffs at the Education Department.
- The injunction follows lawsuits arguing that President Trump's March directive to transfer federal student loan and special education oversight aimed to dismantle the department illegally.
- The lawsuits, backed by unions and school districts, say layoffs disabled the department from fulfilling congressional mandates, risking financial uncertainty and loss of services for vulnerable students.
- Judge Joun wrote the declarations paint a "stark picture" of irreparable harm including impeded access to vital knowledge and loss of essential services, while requiring weekly compliance reports within 72 hours.
- The administration called the ruling an overreach and said it will challenge the injunction on an emergency basis, asserting the layoffs aim to increase efficiency, not close the department.
