Hi friend,

In case you missed it, U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan took decisive action to block the Trump administration’s reckless freeze on federal aid spending. This move prevented an immediate crisis for nonprofits, local programs, and countless communities that rely on federal funding to provide essential services.

The sudden freeze, rolled out without clear guidance or warning, put everything from payrolls to critical support programs at risk. But thanks to Judge AliKhan’s swift ruling, funding remains available—for now. Her decision is a crucial step in ensuring that vulnerable communities aren’t left scrambling due to political chaos.

Sign the petition to thank Judge AliKhan for standing up for fairness and protecting those who rely on federal aid.

In times like these, it’s important to recognize and support those working to safeguard justice and stability. Let’s show our gratitude for this important decision and continue the fight to protect critical funding.

In solidarity,

Emily from The Smile
