Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump admin threats to cut Denver’s funding

On Tuesday, a federal judge in Washington State and other local governments were granted a preliminary matter against the Trump administration threats to block federal funding for transportation programs.

Denver and dozens of other prosecutors filed the lawsuit in May, claiming that the Trump administration threats would withhold an estimated $ 4 billion in critical federal grants go beyond the authority of the executive authority, and thus were “the conditions for illegal financing and political motives,” according to the marriage order.

The judge has spent that the Trump administration has probably violated the separation of the doctrine of power, and that its threats to reduce financing are harmful.

“This danger, which is looming on the horizon, is the injury, and the truly prosecutors come, and the matter is mentioned. “The courts that evaluate similar circumstances have realized that this injury from acute budget uncertainty is not repaired.”

The lawsuit was filed after US Secretary of Transport Sean Dove issued a memorandum in April, which warned of the beneficiaries of federal financing that they might lose grants if they did not abide by the Trump administration’s position on diversity, shares and integration programs.

The Duffy Memorandum also mentioned that failure to help impose a federal immigration policy can also lead to a loss of financing.

“Denver follows all laws – federal, state and local – and it should not be possible to ask the White House to do the same,” Johnston said in a statement. “We appreciate the quick and accurate judgment of the court to protect the federal financing that Dunphir deserves.”
