Trump Administration Appeals IMLS Injunction
|
6.1
On January 19, 2026 the Trump administration appealed Rhode Island v. Trump to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, challenging a November 2025 permanent injunction that prevented further dismantling of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and restored grant funding. The move highlights ongoing legal disputes over IMLS leadership under Keith Sonderling, leaving libraries and applicants with continued uncertainty about federal grants.
