Judge blocks Trump anti-terrorism grant election condition
Original: Judge blocks Trump from tying anti-terrorism grants to election changes
A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from tying federal anti-terrorism grants to changes in election procedures. Under the policy, states seeking security funding would have been required to alter election rules, a condition critics said was coercive. The ruling halts the requirement while litigation proceeds, and comes amid ongoing disputes over federal authority over state-run elections.
Why now: The court ruling is a fresh development in the ongoing legal battles over Trump administration election-related policies.
