A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to immediately cease airing television advertisements funded by taxpayers.1235 The judge determined that the government's use of public funds for the promotional campaign violated federal law prohibiting the use of congressional appropriations for political advocacy.4 According to court filings, Border Patrol officials informed the judge that the ads would end by Sunday.23
The Department of Homeland Security confirmed it has complied with the court's directive to stop broadcasting the ads.1 The advertising campaign, which was financed with $20 million in taxpayer money and began in late September, had drawn bipartisan opposition.4 In response to the ruling, the White House stated that the Trump campaign's political action committee will assume financial responsibility for any future advertising, indicating that no additional taxpayer funds will be allocated to replace those already spent.4
