Preliminary Injunction on Revised PRWORA Interpretation

The United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island issued a preliminary injunction on September 10th, blocking the Trump Administration's enforcement of changes to PRWORAthat prohibit taxpayer-funded program benefits, including the health center program, from being provided to "unqualified aliens," including certain classes of immigrants. The preliminary injunction is enforced in New York and around 20 other plaintiff states. The preliminary injunction will maintain the status quo while the case works its way through the judicial system.
