New York Attorney General Letitia James and 22 states filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for cutting over $11 billion in health funding, including nearly $400 million to New York. The coalition argues that these cuts violate federal law and harm public health, potentially devastating communities across the country. They seek a court order to restore funding, asserting that failure to do so will dismantle essential health services and result in significant job losses among healthcare workers. The funds in question were allocated for pandemic preparedness and mental health initiatives amid the COVID-19 crisis.
The Trump administration's illegal and irresponsible decision to claw back life-saving health funding is an attack on the well-being of millions of Americans.
The coalition asserts that if funding is not restored, key public health programs and initiatives across the country will have to be dissolved.
