"🌐 Who Suing Trump

As of January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump and his administration are facing multiple lawsuits from various entities challenging recent executive actions and policies. Notable legal challenges include:
1. State-Led Lawsuits Against Birthright Citizenship Executive Order
On January 20, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14160, titled "Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship," aiming to end birthright citizenship for children of certain non-citizens. This action prompted immediate legal challenges:
State of Washington v. Trump: Filed on January 21, 2025, by the states of Washington, Arizona, Illinois, and Oregon, this lawsuit argues that the executive order violates the Fourteenth Amendment. On January 23, 2025, a federal judge issued a temporary restraining order blocking the order's implementation.
CASA Inc. v. Trump: Immigrant rights groups CASA and the Asylum Seeker Advocacy Project filed this lawsuit on behalf of five pregnant women, challenging the executive order in a Maryland federal court. On February 5, 2025, a judge issued a nationwide preliminary injunction, stating the order likely violates the Constitution.
2. Legal Challenges to Federal Funding Policies
The Trump administration's decision to freeze federal funding for certain programs has led to additional lawsuits:
National Council of Nonprofits v. Trump: Filed on January 28, 2025, in the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., this lawsuit challenges the administration's pause on federal funding, arguing it unlawfully disrupts essential public services.
State of California v. Trump: California's leadership has initiated multiple lawsuits against the administration's policies, particularly those affecting environmental regulations and immigration. The state has allocated significant resources to contest these federal actions.
3. Lawsuits from Federal Employees
The administration's efforts to reclassify and potentially dismiss federal employees based on perceived political affiliations have resulted in legal actions:
Federal Employees v. Trump Administration: FBI employees and other federal workers have filed lawsuits alleging that actions to reclassify their positions violate First Amendment protections against political discrimination.
These lawsuits represent a fraction of the legal challenges confronting President Trump and his administration as of January 20, 2025. The outcomes of these cases could significantly impact the administration's policy implementation and the broader legal landscape.
