Judge Blocks FEMA From Tying Antiterrorism Grants to Election Changes
Original: Judge Blocks # FEMA From Tying # Antiterrorism # Grants to # Election Changes # Voters cast primary election # ballots i
A federal judge ruled Monday that the Trump administration cannot withhold FEMA antiterrorism preparedness grants from states over election-related policy changes. The decision means states will keep access to federal security funding regardless of their election rules, in a case with implications for how far the administration can use grant conditions to pressure states on voting policy.
Why now: A new court ruling limits the administration's use of federal security grants to influence state election policy.
