HUD says homeless services program overhaul on pause after federal injunction
The federal housing agency said it will implement changes to the Continuum of Care program if the injunction is “no longer in effect”
The wolf hunts can continue in Idaho and Montana, a federal judge ruled today, denying requests by environmentalists and animal welfare groups to stop the hunts.
But the Associated Press reports a ruling that is somewhat conflicted - U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy said that the federal government appeared to violate the Endangered Species Act by leaving Wyoming wolves under federal protection and making a decision based on political boundaries. That appears to violate the Endangered Species Act, he said. Leaving the window open a crack for environmentalists, he said that means enviros could win their bid to restore endangered species protection for wolves.
