Injunction lifted on Trump executive orders slashing federal DEI support
Fox News
An appeals court on Friday overturned a previous judge's decision to block President Donald Trump's executive orders surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs.
Two of the judges on the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the orders "could raise concerns" about First Amendment rights, but found Abelson's "sweeping block went too far," according to the report. Alexandra Koch is a breaking news writer for Fox News Digital. Prior to joining Fox News, Alexandra covered breaking news, crime, religion, and the military in the southeast.
Abelson, a Biden nominee, previously ruled the orders violated the First Amendment right to free speech and were unconstitutionally "vague," as they did not define DEI.
