What backs it

A federal judge ruled that the USDA cannot move forward with a restructuring plan that would relocate the U.S. Forest Service headquarters to Salt Lake City, close 23 research facilities and all nine regional offices, and reduce the workforce by 23%, at least until December 11.

Worth noting

The ruling is temporary; the legal challenge continues.
