A judge in Massachusetts temporarily enjoined the Trump administration from stripping some Medicaid funds from the nation's largest abortion provider
FOX NEWS -- A judge on Monday temporarily blocked the Trump administration from stripping some Medicaid funds from Planned Parenthood after Congress and President Donald Trump agreed to partially defund the nonprofit through passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Judge Indira Talwani of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts said in her order partially granting a preliminary injunction that the bill unconstitutionally punishes Planned Parenthood member organizations that do not provide abortions.
The injunction will risk "at most minimal harm—financial or otherwise" to the Trump administration while the lawsuit proceeds, Talwani, an Obama appointee, wrote.
The judge's order appears to apply to some but not all Planned Parenthood facilities. The nonprofit said in a statement that it viewed Talwani's order as a partial win and remained "hopeful" that the judge would take further judicial action down the line.
