(CNN) A federal judge on Saturday ordered the Trump administration to temporarily stop "winding down or altering any Census field operations." The temporary restraining order is the first court order this fall impacting how the final weeks of counting will unfold. This order is in effect until a hearing on September 17. Groups protesting the move said the practice risked undercounting minority groups, including both legal and undocumented immigrants. The Census Bureau sent a message to its field operations leadership late Saturday informing them of the order from the federal judge to continue Census field work.
