Judge halts "sanctuary city" crackdown

• Boston receives around $300 million in federal funding each year.

Driving the news: The judge cited "budgetary uncertainty" and potential violations of constitutional rights in his ruling.

• The same judge blocked a similar Trump order in 2017 and wrote "here we are again" in his decision.

Catch up quick: Shortly after taking office, Trump had ordered the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security to withhold funds from cities that limit local law enforcement's cooperation with ICE, as Boston does.
