The U.S. Supreme Court delivered another win for President Donald Trump on Tuesday. The justices allowed his executive order to proceed with sweeping cuts across federal agencies.
In an unsigned decision, the Court lifted a lower court injunction that had blocked Trump’s February 13 directive calling for “large-scale reductions in force.” The injunction came from Clinton-appointed Judge Susan Illston in Northern California, who questioned the order’s legality.
However, the Supreme Court said her ruling relied on speculation. The actual reorganization plans had not yet been submitted for review.
