Judge Blocks FEMA From Tying Antiterrorism Grants to Election Changes

A federal judge ruled Monday that the Trump administration cannot withhold FEMA antiterrorism preparedness grants from states based on their election-related policies. The decision stops the administration from making homeland security funding conditional on states changing how they run elections, a move critics called an improper use of federal money to pressure states over voting rules.
Why now: A fresh court ruling against the Trump administration's funding conditions on election matters is politically significant and newly decided.
