A federal judge on Thursday extended a temporary order preventing the White House from revoking access for CNN, MS NOW and Politico while the court considers a longer-term ruling on President Trump’s ban affecting the outlets.

U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly heard arguments in Washington, D.C., from the news organizations and the Trump administration over the legality of the restrictions. The extension came as an initial restraining order was due to expire. PBS reported that Trump barred the three organizations last month; the court’s order keeps their White House access in place until a final ruling is reached.
