@sacramentourbanmedia916: A federal judge on Friday temporarily barred the Trump administration from cutting off federal funding for child care assistance and other programs designed to help low-income children and families in five states led by Democrats. California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, and New York challenged the administration’s decision to suspend funding for three grant programs announced earlier in the week. The states told the court that the freeze was already disrupting services and creating significant administrative confusion. They also argued that the federal government lacked a lawful basis for withholding the funds. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services defended the pause, saying it had concerns that the states may be providing benefits to individuals living in the country illegally. However, the agency did not present evidence to support the claim or explain why only those five states were targeted.#fyp #viral
