💨 Abstract

A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from dismantling the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), an agency that funds and promotes libraries across the US. The American Library Association and a federal employees union filed a lawsuit to stop the administration from gutting the IMLS, which Congress created. The judge's ruling preserves the status quo at the agency and bars the administration from taking any further steps to dissolve it while the lawsuit is pending.
