Last night, it extended that order <https://t.devex.com/dc/kyXVoDpAY__Vu56MNr4POp_Hs-eLlqXZ5H-RoYoukth3mwLfJzyD…> and stressed that *the administration needed to get the money flowing again*, which it has largely refused to do <https://t.devex.com/dc/kyXVoDpAY__Vu56MNr4POlJNH-zgYN4uLQ2vyaWxF-yOJIQlX2cx…> . The administration had claimed it could terminate nearly all USAID <https://t.devex.com/Njg1LUtCTC03NjUAAAGYx15_qxjPZfFZ6NGp9yOhKblMBMU7SBf34zk…> contracts and grants because the judge’s original order stated that normal contract clauses can still be enforced. But in the most recent hearing, Judge Amir Ali *pushed back on that assertion*. “The Court was not inviting Defendants to continue the suspension while they reviewed contracts and legal authorities to come up with a new, post-hoc rationalization for the en masse suspension,” he stated. But the judge *didn’t find the government in contempt*, which was what the plaintiffs in the case — including for-profit contractors and NGOs — had been seeking. Instead, Ali *extended the temporary restraining order until midnight on March 10*, 2025. Though his earlier reversal hasn’t yet resulted in the thaw of Trump’s funding freeze, this latest order is clear: The administration cannot “simply replace their earlier implementations with ‘other directives’” to suspend, pause, or terminate obligated funds. *Read:* Court extends order lifting Trump administration's foreign aid freeze <https://t.devex.com/dc/kyXVoDpAY__Vu56MNr4POp_Hs-eLlqXZ5H-RoYoukth3mwLfJzyD…>
