· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
A federal judge has halted an executive order from President Donald Trump that mandated museums, parks, and monuments to remove exhibits related to slavery and climate change. Judge Angel Kelley issued a preliminary injunction, stating that the plaintiffs demonstrated the order aimed to 'rewrite the nation's history with a whiteout.' The ruling requires the Trump administration to provide weekly updates on any changes. The order was challenged by conservation and historical organizations, citing that it led to the removal of significant exhibits, including those about enslaved individuals and labor history. The decision is seen as a victory for preserving accurate historical narratives in national parks.
