A separate federal judge this week also halted Trump's order requiring colleges to certify they don't consider race in admissions, following a suit by 17 Democratic AGs. Per the NYT litigation tracker: 700+ total lawsuits against the Trump administration. Courts have at least partially blocked policies in 150+ cases. Republicans hold the White House, both chambers of Congress, and a SCOTUS majority. Courts remain one of the available checks.
