Judge pauses Trump plan to put USAID staff on leave
- A U.S. Judge has temporarily blocked President Donald Trump's plan to place 2,200 USAID workers on paid leave, just hours before it was set to take effect.
- The restraining order, issued by Judge Carl Nichols, will remain in effect until February 14 and reinstates employees already placed on administrative leave.
- The ruling prevents the Trump administration from continuing efforts to dismantle USAID, a key agency providing global aid, including health programs.
- The legal battle over USAID's future continues, with a hearing on a longer-term pause scheduled for Wednesday.
