Case Summary

This case challenged provisions of Executive Order No. 14173 (the "Anti-Diversity Order") and Executive Order No. 14168 (the "Gender Order"), which imposed new conditions on recipients of federal contracts and grants. The City of Seattle contended that the Executive Orders unlawfully imposed vague conditions on federal funding, thereby jeopardizing essential municipal services such as transportation, housing, and public safety by threatening to withhold funds based on policies promoting diversi…

On July 31, 2025, the City of Seattle filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington against the President of the United States, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), and other federal agencies and their officials. The plaintiff alleged that the defendants' actions violated the Separation of Powers doctrine, the Spending Clause, the Fifth and Tenth Amendments, and the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). Specifically, the plaintiff contended that the challenged Orders were unconstitutionally vague in violation of the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment and that Defendants' actions were arbitrary and capricious, in excess of statutory authority, and contrary to constitutional right, power, privilege, or immunity, in violation of the APA. The plaintiff sought a declaratory judgment that the Orders were unlawful, an injunction barring their enforcement, and an award of costs and attorneys' fees. The case was assigned to U.S. Senior District Judge Barbara J. Rothstein.

The plaintiff filed a motion for a preliminary injunction on August 26, 2025 seeking to enjoin the defendants from enforcing the False Claims Act certification requirement (Section 3(b)(iv)) of the Anti-Diversity Order and the federal funding condition (Section 3(g)) of the Gender Order with respect to any grants awarded to Seattle.

On October 31, 2025, the court granted the plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction. The court found that Seattle was likely to succeed on its APA claim because the federal agencies imposed funding conditions derived from executive policies not authorized by Congress, thereby violating the separation of powers and exceeding their statutory authority. The court further concluded that the agencies acted arbitrarily and capriciously by failing to provide a reasoned explanation for the challenged requirements. It also concluded that the City demonstrated irreparable harm and that both the balance of equities and the public interest favored granting injunctive relief. 2025 WL 3041905. On December 29, 2025, the defendants appealed the preliminary injunction to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

In the appellate court, the defendants moved on January 9, 2026 to stay the proceedings pending the issuance of a mandate in County of King et al. v Turner (25-3664). The court granted this motion on January 12.

Back in the District Court, the plaintiffs filed the first amended complaint on April 7, 2026. Eight new plaintiffs were added: the City of Cleveland; the City of Columbus; the City of Durham; the City of Portland; Allegheny County; Hennepin County; Prince George’s County; and Ramsey County. The description of harm as well as the relief requested was expanded to apply to all of these plaintiffs. Additionally, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department of Agriculture, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Department of Energy, and Department of Labor were added as defendants. The plaintiffs added factual allegations in the amended complaint, including that: (1) the Anti-Diversity Order’s certification requirement exceeds statutory authority, and (2) the Gender Order’s language describing “promotion of gender ideology” is overly broad and susceptible to discriminatory enforcement. New details were also added about the financial impact of the Orders on the plaintiffs, specifically as it relates to health initiatives, infrastructure, and workforce development.

On May 1, the plaintiffs moved for a second preliminary injunction seeking to enjoin the defendants from enforcing Section 3(b)(iv) of the Anti-Diversity Order and Section 3(g) of the Gender Order in connection with any grants to the additional Plaintiffs added in the amended complaint. The motion noted that the plaintiffs were not seeking relief that had already been obtained in other matters including King County et al. v. Turner (2:25-cv-00814) and Chicago v. Noem (1:25-cv-12765).

The defendants moved to consolidate this case with City of Shoreline v. U.S. Department of Transportation (2:26-cv-01311) on May 29. The court granted this motion on June 2, holding that the cases would be consolidated for the purpose of joining the motions for preliminary injunction because the relief sought and arguments brought were similar.

On June 29, 2026, the court granted a preliminary injunction in both this case and City of Shoreline, and denied the defendants’ request for a bond and stay of the preliminary injunctions; the defendants were enjoined from enforcing Section 3(b)(iv) of the Anti-Diversity Order and Section 3(g) of the Gender Order against the plaintiffs. 2026 WL 1862024. The court held that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed on the merits of their APA claims because the challenged conditions in the Orders were contrary to the law and exceeded statutory authority as Congress, not the Executive, determines conditions pertaining to federal spending. Further, the court reasoned that the plaintiffs would face irreparable harm based upon the detailed evidence that the plaintiffs submitted demonstrating the conditions in the Orders would threaten funding used for public safety, emergency preparedness, transportation infrastructure, housing, health care, and workforce development. Lastly, the court found that the balance of equities and the public interest favored the plaintiffs because while the federal government has an interest in ensuring that funds are used for their authorized purposes, it does not have an interest in enforcing conditions that would likely violate the APA. While the defendants sought a bond and a stay of this preliminary injunction, the court denied these requests, holding that the defendants did not meet the standard for a stay or demonstrate that they would suffer any material harm from the injunction.

As of July 6, 2026, this case is ongoing.
