A lower court issued a ruling ordering President Trump to release $4 billion in congressional-approved foreign aid before its expiration. The ruling stemmed from a request by a group of states seeking to halt the funds’ disbursement. The court affirmed the lower court’s decision, maintaining that the president is bound by legal mandates regarding the allocation of these funds. The ruling does not address any specific legal challenges to the original order, simply reiterating the court’s interpretation of the relevant statutes.
