A federal judge on Friday expanded his ruling blocking the Trump administration from cancelling government funding to dozens of accused sanctuary jurisdictions.  

San Francisco-based U.S. District Judge William Orrick in April ruled in favor of 16 counties and cities that sued the Trump administration’s efforts to rescind billions in funding due to criticism that their policies on illegal immigrants were out of compliance with federal immigration law. His ruling applied only to those jurisdictions, as opposed to other court injunctions that have held nationwide implications.
