- A federal judge in Maryland on Friday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump from implementing bans on diversity, equity and inclusion programs at federal agencies and by businesses that contract with the federal government.

U.S. District Judge Adam Abelson said the directives by Trump, and an order urging the Department of Justice to investigate companies with DEI policies, likely violate the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
