Federal Court Blocks Trump From Dismantling Four Agencies

On Friday, the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island granted summary judgment, permanently blocking the administration from dismantling the Institute of Museum and Library Services, Minority Business Development Agency, Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, and U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness.
After the March 14 executive order titled 'Continuing the Reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy,' attorneys general filed suit on April 4, led by Attorney General Nick Brown .
The agencies targeted include IMLS, MBDA, FMCS and USICH, which provide grants for museums and libraries, aid minority-owned businesses, mediate labor disputes, and coordinate homelessness efforts.
The ruling preserves federal programs that provide hundreds of millions in funding for public libraries and museums, while state attorneys general said it protects resources for workers, small businesses and vulnerable populations.
On Sept. 11, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit denied the administration's stay, leaving the injunction against agency cuts in place, after the suit was amended in June to add USICH.
