Judge orders Trump to restore $500 million in grant funding to UCLA : NPR

A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to reinstate $500 million in federal grant funding to UCLA. Judge Rita Lin ruled the administration violated the Administrative Procedure Act by freezing the funds without proper explanation, following similar rulings regarding NSF grants. The administration's actions were part of a broader effort to pressure universities over alleged civil rights violations, including claims of antisemitism. The White House hasn't yet commented on the ruling, which impacts crucial medical research grants at UCLA.
