​AG Raoul, AG Jones, AG Bonta, and AG Schwalb co-led a coalition of 24 AGs in announcing a U.S. District Court judge granted a preliminary injunction that blocks the Trump administration from demanding the production of a database of state-owned records containing the sensitive personal information of 17 million drivers, and from terminating more than $10 million in federal funding to the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) if it refuses to produce the database.  

 “Our coalition working together obtained this preliminary injunction that prevents the Trump administration from holding federal funding hostage in order to obtain the sensitive, personal information of millions of drivers. This database serves as an important tool that helps states prevent unsafe drivers from operating commercial vehicles. However, the administration’s unlawful actions jeopardize the entire system, which has existed for 40 years. I will continue to vigorously litigate this lawsuit to stop the Trump administration’s unlawful misuse of Americans’ personal information.”  - AG Raoul
