A federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration's cancellation of AmeriCorps grants and early discharge of corps members in several states. The lawsuit, filed by Democratic state officials, argued the administration's cost-cutting measures violated grant agreements and jeopardized services for vulnerable populations. The judge reinstated discharged corps members but allowed the administration to proceed with staff reductions. AmeriCorps and the Department of Justice declined to comment.
