A federal judge from the United States has ordered Tuesday to block from his return to the White House. Specifically, the magistrate has paralyzed the decree that orders to freeze all subsidies and federal loans immediately, which is a new blow to its administration by justice, which last week already.
Judge Loren L. Alikhan’s decision arrived minutes before 5 p.m. It comes, at least until February 3. The order occurs after the NGO Democracy Forward presented a lawsuit in which it claimed that the order violates the first amendment of the Constitution, according to .
The Administration had justified the decision of the blockade with the argument that it is necessary to ensure that all the funds comply with the latest executive orders signed by Donald Trump, which include or cuts in programs of diversity, equity and inclusion.
The freezing of the funds has unleashed stir in the United States on what type of expenses will be affected. The White House has affirmed that the Pause will not affect the Social Security or the Health Program of Medicare, or the assistance to specific individuals.
“It is a sigh of relief for millions of people who have been in Limbo during the last twenty -four hours as a result of the cruel attempt of the Trump administration to close the federal assistance and subsidies programs on which people depend on this country,” , the NGO has pointed out in a statement.
This also occurs after more than a dozen Democratic general prosecutors have announced that they will undertake legal actions against this initiative, which was expected to enter into force at 5:00 p.m. (local time), as collected by the NBC News chain.
“The new policy of this administration not only puts people at risk, but also clearly unconstitutional. The president cannot decide which laws and for whom. When Congress allocates funds to a program, the president cannot withdraw them by Capricho, “said New York Attorney General, Letitia James.
