AG James welcomes court decision blocking Trump from withholding essential federal funding for Caribbean immigrants

New York Attorney General Letitia James has welcomed a court’s decision temporarily blocking President Trump from withholding trillions of dollars in funding that every state in the country relies on to provide essential services to millions of Americans, including Caribbean immigrants.

The US District Court for the District of Rhode Island on Friday granted James and the coalition of 22 attorneys general’s request for a temporary restraining order, halting the implementation of the administration’s policy.
