U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman, who a day earlier had issued a temporary restraining order, issued a preliminary injunction preventing the federal government from withholding approval of or funding for New York projects. Liman said in his 109-page opinion that the Transportation Department had "challenged Plaintiffs to a game of chicken," saying York could either kill the program or "else may brace for impact and prepare to suffer the effects" of government compliance measures.

A U.S. federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction preventing the Trump administration from implementing a policy that would have allowed the killing of migratory birds, ruling that the policy change was "arbitrary and capricious." The decision, made by U.S. District Judge Valerie Caproni in New York, upholds the Migratory Bird Treaty Act's prohibition on the incidental killing of birds during activities like oil drilling and construction. The ruling came in response to a lawsuit filed by several states and environmental groups against a 2017 Department of Interior memo that sought to narrow the scope of the Act, arguing that it only applied to intentional killings. Judge Caproni's decision maintains protections for over 1,000 bird species and is seen as a significant victory for conservation efforts.
