Case Summary

During his first eight months in office, President Donald Trump signed several executive orders that directed government agencies to add new conditions to federal grants, including, Executive Order 14168, which instructed agencies to end funding of “gender ideology” and ensure grants did not promote it, Executive Order 14173, which directed agencies to ban programs promoting Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) and make compliance “material” under the False Claims Act, and Executive Order 1433…

On August 20, 2025, several cities and counties in California, as well as the Monroe County Airport Authority in New York, filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and its Secretary; and several other federal agencies and their respective leadership.

Plaintiffs challenged conditions Defendants imposed on federal grants to coerce compliance with executive policy objectives as outlined in President Trump’s Executive Orders. Plaintiffs alleged that these conditions were unconstitutionally vague and violated Separation of Powers, the Spending Clause, and the Fifth and Tenth Amendments of the U.S. Constitution. Plaintiffs also alleged that implementation of conditions imposed by Defendants violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). Plaintiffs requested declarations from the court that grant conditions outlined by Defendants were unlawful, as well as a preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining Defendants from imposing or enforcing the grant conditions or any materially similar terms or conditions.

On August 21, 2025, the case was assigned to Chief United States District Judge Richard Seeborg. That same day, Plaintiffs filed a Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) asking the court to immediately halt enforcement of grant conditions that required compliance with President Trump’s Executive Orders. On August 27, 2025, Judge Seeborg granted the TRO. First, looking at jurisdictional concerns, standing, and ripeness, the court found the challenged grant conditions constituted “final agency action” under the APA because they imposed an “‘immediate and significant practical burden’ on Plaintiffs.” Judge Seeborg then turned to the merits, finding that Plaintiffs were likely to succeed. In weighing the harms, Judge Seeborg found that Plaintiffs would suffer irreparable harm if the grant conditions were not enjoined because Plaintiffs would be forced to choose between complying with grant conditions that were “likely unconstitutional" or “forgoing key federal grant funding.” The court denied Defendants’ request for a bond, finding that there was “no realistic likelihood of harm” to Defendants by enjoining their conduct. The court additionally held that the public interest was “served” by allowing Plaintiffs clarity in the funding they would be allotted, which would then be used to provide key services to the public. 2025 WL 2469330.

On September 8, 2025, Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint, naming four additional Plaintiffs, expanding venue to San Francisco and Oakland Division to include the new Plaintiffs and adding additional allegations of fact, as to specific grant programs and projects that were affected by the Executive Orders’ grant conditions. Plaintiffs also filed a Motion for Preliminary Injunction, with their arguments for a preliminary injunction mirroring those accepted by Judge Seeborg when he granted Plaintiffs’ TRO. The court granted the preliminary injunction on September 23, 2025. The court found that the agencies’ actions in imposing grant conditions were arbitrary and capricious and “in excess of statutory authority,” in violation of the APA. The grant conditions were also “contrary to the constitution” because they violated due process and separation of power. Thus, Plaintiffs were likely to succeed on the merits of their claim. The court also weighed the harms as it did when it granted Plaintiffs’ TRO, and again found that Plaintiffs stood to face irreparable harm. 2025 WL 2721390.

This case remains ongoing. While TROs are not appealable, preliminary injunctions are. It is possible that the administration will appeal, though this had not happened as of October 1.
