- A U.S. judge on Wednesday said he was inclined to temporarily block the Trump administration from pausing federal loans, grants and other financial assistance, intervening at the behest of Democratic state attorneys general amid confusion over White House spending policy.

Providence, Rhode Island-based Chief U.S. District Judge John McConnell asked the state attorneys general to submit a proposed temporary restraining order for him to sign after the White House said that it had rescinded the memo that kicked off the legal fight but was not backing down from implementing a freeze on funding in areas targeted by Trump's recent executive orders.
