Story highlights There is concern and trepidation about how long the ruling will holdFunding for resettlement groups is also in questionWashington (CNN) For the second weekend in a row, nonprofits tasked with welcoming refugees to the United States are reacting to a sudden, major shift in the policies that govern their work. A week ago, President Donald Trump signed an executive order suspending resettlement for 120 days and initiating a review of the vetting procedures used to approve applicants to come to the United States. Then Friday, a more welcome surprise for refugee groups: A federal judge in Washington reversed several key provisions of the executive order, paving the way some refugees to enter the country. Amid the celebration, however, there is also concern and trepidation about how long the ruling will hold, and how many refugees will actually be admitted. "I feel like our whole world has been turned upside-down," Danielle Drake, community relations manager at the Cleveland nonprofit US Together, told CNN Saturday.
