Summary

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to temporarily lift its freeze on USAID funding, giving it five days to show compliance.

The ruling highlights the financial harm to nonprofits and suppliers due to the abrupt funding halt, which has disrupted global aid programs.

The judge criticized the administration’s lack of justification for the freeze and barred officials from enforcing stop-work orders.

The decision follows lawsuits from aid groups and contractors, with further legal challenges expected against USAID’s dismantling under Trump and Elon Musk.
