Judge orders Trump administration to reinstate AmeriCorps grants in 24 states

All 24 states involved in the suit — Maryland, Delaware, California, Colorado, Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington and Wisconsin — are Democratic-led.

In April, the states and D.C. sued the White House, arguing that the administration’s push to dismantle AmeriCorps — a national service program — by terminating its grants for programs nationwide and by placing most of the staff on leave was unlawful.
