On Friday evening, US District Judge Indira Talwani reaffirmed her order blocking President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill that barred Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood.
Judge Talwani dissolved her Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and entered an amended one that complied with the requirements.
The Trump DOJ argued that the judge issued a TRO without notice.

5/ SO the ONLY claim the judge said Plaintiffs had a likelihood of success on was the First Amendment association one and only SOME entities have standing to make that challenge, yet Judge re-upped TRO for all Planned Parenthoods. pic.twitter.com/fmqeHzpNOM

On Monday, Judge Talwani, an Obama appointee, issued a TRO and set a preliminary injunction hearing for July 21.
“This Temporary Restraining Order shall remain in effect for fourteen days, unless vacated, modified or extended by the court,” the judge wrote.
Planned Parenthood sued the Trump Administration over its funding cuts written into the newly-passed reconciliation bill.
The House passed the Big Beautiful Bill last week and President Trump signed in on July 4th at the White House.
“Everyone deserves access to high-quality, affordable health care. That’s what we’ve been fighting for the last century — and we’ll never stop,” President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Alexis McGill Johnson said last week. “We’ll be suing the Trump administration to stop this unlawful attack. See you in court.”
