💨 Abstract

A U.S. federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from cutting funding for programs providing legal services for unaccompanied children in immigration proceedings. The judge's order is in response to a lawsuit filed by nonprofit legal service providers who claimed the funding was crucial for 26,000 children to keep their attorneys. The judge cited the public interest in ensuring children have legal representation and protection from human trafficking. The administration did not comment on the ruling.
