A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to reinstall dozens of exhibits on slavery, climate change, and civil rights it stripped from America's national parks, calling the removals an attempt 'to rewrite the Nation's history with a white-out pen.'
US District Judge Angel Kelley in Boston issued a 63-page preliminary injunction on 13 June 2026, directing the Department of the Interior to restore all interpretive materials removed or altered at National Park Service sites since 20 May 2025, with a 21-day deadline timed explicitly to fall before 4 July, the nation's 250th anniversary. The ruling also bars any further removals while the underlying case proceeds.
