- Judge William Orrick’s order follows new executive order from Trump
- Judge has blocked Trump administration from cutting off funding
- Dispute is over federal immigration law enforcement
A federal judge warned on Friday that a new executive order from President Donald Trump that calls for cutting off funding to so-called sanctuary jurisdictions that do not cooperate with his immigration agenda cannot be used to evade a court order barring his administration from doing just that.
U.S. District Judge William Orrick in San Francisco issued Friday’s order, opens new tab at the urging of 16 cities and counties nationally that had already secured an injunction barring the administration from withholding all federal funding to them.
