The judge said her ruling is intended to "maintain the status quo." It does not block the Trump administration from freezing funding to new programs.

District 2, covering vast Eastern Oregon and represented by Oregon's only Republican, Rep. Cliff Bentz, has the second most, with 7,887. Districts 1, 3 and 5, containing much of the Portland metro area, have a total of 15,730 employees. Washington's third district, containing Vancouver, has 10,104 federal employees.

Oregon and 22 other states are suing the Trump administration after it ordered an abrupt freeze to many federal payments, leaving state agencies unable to access reimbursements for Medicaid and child care programs and sending state officials scrambling to determine the total effect.

Oregon's congressional delegation as well as other lawmakers in the region, reacted to the Trump administration's freeze on federal grants and loans.

Here's a roundup of Oregon politicians who will be attending or missing President-elect Donald Trump's Inauguration Day ceremonies on Monday.

The online system for federal health funding warned of delays due to executive orders after the Trump administration announced a freeze.

Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek says she will uphold state law prohibiting government officials and police from helping federal immigration officers.

Before taking questions at her first news briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt gave an update she said came “directly” from President Donald Trump.

The full extent of the order was not immediately clear, but the directive sent to government agencies on Monday threatened to paralyze a vast swath of federal programs.

"This is not a blanket pause on federal assistance and grant programs from the Trump administration," Leavitt said during a briefing Tuesday. "The reason for this is to ensure that every penny that is going out the door is not conflicting with the executive orders and actions that this president has taken."

Gov. Tina Kotek urged Oregonians to keep using services such as Medicaid and Head Start as usual, and not delay care.
