Trump Administration Seeks Supreme Court Intervention on Foreign Aid Funds

WASHINGTON, Feb 26 (Reuters) - In a significant legal move, President Donald Trump's administration has formally requested the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene and temporarily suspend a federal judge's order. This order mandates the government to disburse foreign aid funds to contractors and grant recipients for work completed in the past.

Request to Halt Judge Amir Ali's Order

The Trump administration filed an urgent request, urging the Supreme Court justices to put on hold the decision made by U.S. District Judge Amir Ali, based in Washington. The administration argues that the order represents a case of judicial overreach. The judge's directive had set a strict deadline for compliance—11:59 p.m. on Wednesday night.

The administration's contention centers around the argument that the judge's order could potentially disrupt governmental processes and priorities. They hope that the Supreme Court will recognize these implications and grant a temporary halt to the order.

This case highlights the ongoing tension between different branches of government, particularly in matters involving foreign aid and judicial authority.
