❗️We did it (for now)! ❗️

Our lawsuit was successful - US district court is blocking OMB from moving forward on its reckless plan to halt federal funding.

The stay is until Monday, so still much more to do.

For now - take a breath, take a rest, and buckle up - we’re not done.

Incredibly helpful guide from @dianeyentel.bsky.social and the National Council of Nonprofits.
Many of the Executive Orders signed by President Trump will impact nonprofits organizations and the people they serve. See our National Council of Nonprofits chart and check back often for updates: www.councilofnonprofits.org/files/media/...
