A federal judge ruled on Friday that President Donald Trump's administration violated a court order by halting the disbursement of hundreds of millions of dollars in Federal Emergency Management Agency grants to states.
U.S. District Judge John McConnell in Providence, Rhode Island, sided with Democratic state attorneys general in finding that the funding pause violated his injunction blocking the administration's earlier sweeping pause of federal grants, loans and other financial aid.
Those attorneys general from 22 states and the District of Columbia said that FEMA had been halting disbursements since early February to conduct a "manual review" of grants without clearly explaining when the process would end.
