An appeals court lifted a block on President Donald Trump's executive orders ending federal support for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs. A panel of three judges ruled that the orders can now take effect, effectively slashing federal funding for DEI initiatives. The decision comes after a court challenge to the executive orders was temporarily blocked by a lower court. The ruling allows the Trump administration's policies on DEI support to be implemented nationwide.
