We extend our deepest gratitude to U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan for her decisive action in temporarily blocking the Trump administration’s abrupt freeze on federal aid spending. Judge AliKhan’s ruling ensures critical funding for nonprofits and other grant recipients remains available, safeguarding essential services for countless communities across the country. This freeze, announced without sufficient clarity or notice, threatened to disrupt payrolls, rent payments, and vital services that many nonprofits provide to those in need. Judge AliKhan’s swift decision to grant an administrative stay demonstrates her commitment to upholding fairness and protecting those who rely on federal aid during a time of uncertainty. Nonprofits are the backbone of many communities, providing essential support to vulnerable populations. By pausing this freeze and scheduling further hearings, Judge AliKhan has ensured that their voices—and the voices of those they serve—are heard and considered. Sign this petition to thank Judge AliKhan for standing up for justice and fairness in the face of sweeping changes that could have had devastating consequences. Let’s show our appreciation for her thoughtful and compassionate leadership in protecting the rights and livelihoods of so many.
