Appeals Court Allows Block on Administration’s Unlawful Reorganization of the Federal Government to Continue

In early May, we announced that we had joined a lawsuit to challenge the constitutionality of the executive branch’s reorganization of the federal government, which was underway without legislative authority.

That challenge resulted in a U.S. District Court issuing a temporary restraining order on the Trump administration to prevent them from reorganizing the government (including a pause to all layoffs and departmental restructuring) while the case is reviewed.

The administration appealed that decision to pause their actions, and we’re pleased to share that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit has rejected the executive branch’s appeal. We’ll continue to provide updates as this case moves forward.

Now, more than ever, CT NOFA needs to return to its origins as a grassroots organization. If you believe in fighting to protect the funding and resources that our state’s farmers rely on, in educational programming and organic advocacy, in all the things that we’ve been doing since 1982, then we hope you’ll choose to support us.

Both donations and annual memberships are a critical part of our financial future, and if you support us fighting on your behalf for organic farms and farmers, we hope you’ll manifest that support through a donation or by starting or renewing a membership with us, today.
