Six researchers from the Bay Area have launched a lawsuit against the Trump administration, asserting that recent funding cuts threaten public research continuity. By aiming for class action status, they seek to restore terminated federal grants affecting the University of California system. The complaint highlights violations of the First Amendment and circumventions of Congress, calling for injunctive relief to maintain their research work. The administration, however, defends its spending realignment as aligned with the electorate's mandate.
The plaintiffs seek an injunction to restore their lost funding and prevent unlawful grant terminations, illustrating the vital role federal grants play in research.
The lawsuit accuses the Trump administration of violating the First Amendment, bypassing congressional authority, and harming public research through unlawful funding cuts.
