NEW YORK, Jan 9 (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Friday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump's administration from freezing access by five Democratic-led states to more than $10 billion of federal funds for child care and family assistance based on what it said were concerns about fraud.
U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian, an appointee of Democratic former President Joe Biden, said he issued a temporary restraining order for the reasons stated in a legal filing by California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York, which filed the lawsuit.
The states sued the Trump administration late on Thursday, two days after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced the freeze.
Funds that were frozen include more than $7 billion from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, which provides cash to low-income families with children. The funds also included $2.4 billion from the Child Care and Development Fund, which helps make childcare more affordable, and about $870 million in social services grants for children.

Until SCOTUS says otherwise.
As usual,
Another Indian POS destroying this country.
Ok. Freeze it all.
Yep
Basically a foreigner ruling over genuine actual citizens.
Time to end all of this. SCROTUS needs to step up. They won’t, Roberts is the worst CJ in my lifetime.
All the states have to do is prove the expenses are legit. Why would a judge block? Do they even have the right to block?
>> Until SCOTUS says otherwise.
Freeze the payments anyway. Without fanfare or even acknowledgement of the Biden foreigner judge’s “ruling”. Just don’t make the payments.
What’s this Tamil demon-dog gonna do? Pay it out of his own funds?
To be factual, Arun Subramanian was born in Pittsburgh.
Did we outsource the judiciary to Accenture or something?
This action isn’t because he’s a Democrat? I see all these other Democrat judges who aren’t of Indian descent doing the exact same thing.
Subramanian was born in Pittsburgh to a Tamil family originally from India
Then freeze all of it, I agree.
Don’t want to discriminate, everyone should suffer because of the states that promote federal government fraud!
Dipsh** refugee Judgette, Irun Theasylum? Never heard of the foreign POS. The Jughead does not have the authority to stop the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES from stopping the friggin’ illegal alien subhuman maggots from stealing 20 billion taxpayer dollars. I’m tired of electing Americans and the evil DemonRATS give the government jobs to friggin illegal alien fruitcake morons. This sewage should not be eligible to pass judgement on AMERICANS. We have different core values. Refugee, Illegal Alien Dipshitck Court Judgettes and not qualified to pass judgement on Americans. The all need to be deported. Foreign ILLEGAL ALIENS ARE THE GREATEST THREAT TO DEMONRAT DEMOCKRAZY.
The judge has issued an order, but hasn’t blocked anything. It’s only a blockage if Trump complies. Given that this is an executive function, one has legitimate doubts about the Constitutionality of this order.
Got that “somali look” about him ...
Well it’s not like we don’t just print money……
I’m not surprised. There needs to be more than suspicion or fear of fraud (which is likely I concede) to pull that much money, which was I believe appropriated by legislation since it would effectively punish innocent recipients, including children, as well as those who are guilty.
Let the fraud allegations be investigated and when it is found then charge and prosecute those accused.
Please tell me by what authority the president is empowered to freeze those funds let alone without any investigation to determine those who committed the alleged fraud?
