From Fox News: A federal judge on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to restore millions of dollars in grant funding for AmeriCorps and to reemploy thousands of employees, ruling that the administration’s abrupt dismantling of the organization violated federal law.
U.S. District Judge Deborah Boardman agreed to reinstate thousands of terminated AmeriCorps employees across 24 U.S. states and D.C., which sued the administration earlier this year over the steep cuts to the agency ordered by the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE.
She also ordered the Trump administration to restore hundreds of millions of dollars in congressionally approved funding for AmeriCorps programs, which were also slashed by DOGE earlier this year.
Boardman said the Trump administration may have violated administrative procedures by not giving proper notice or allowing for a comment period ahead of cancellations and terminations.
The decision requires the Trump administration to provide adequate notice before cutting the jobs.
This is an agency whose members teach in our schools, build and repair homes, provide meals and so much more for Americans across our commonwealth and country. 2/2
