A coalition of 60 local governments seeks to block the Trump administration's attempts to impose conditions on federal grants from the Department of Health and Human Services. President Trump's executive orders require compliance with his agenda, including restrictions on abortion, gender ideology, and immigration enforcement. An initial lawsuit regarding grants from HUD and DOT was filed and a preliminary injunction was granted. The coalition's amended lawsuit claims the administration's actions threaten over $12 billion in funding across various departments and violates federal law regarding grant conditions.
The Trump administration's unlawful attempts to repurpose federal grant programs established by Congress harm Plaintiffs by threatening more than $12 billion in already-awarded and soon to be awarded funds across HUD, DOT, and HHS.
Federal law requires that any conditions placed on grants must be related to the purpose of the funding; Trump's limitations, according to Narayan, have absolutely no relationship to health care funding.
