High court ruling on injunctions could imperil many court orders blocking the Trump administration

The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision limiting federal judges from issuing nationwide injunctions threatens to upend numerous lawsuits that have led to orders blocking Trump administration policies. Between the start of the new administration and mid-May, judges issued roughly 40 nationwide injunctions against the White House on topics including federal funding, elections rules and diversity and equity considerations. Attorneys involved in some of those cases said Friday they will keep fighting, noting the high court left open other legal paths that could have broad nationwide effect.
