IL Sues RFK Jr, HHS Over Health Funding Cuts

On Tuesday, Kris Mayes, Arizona's Attorney General, announced a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
The lawsuit challenges the federal government's recent decision to slash $11.4 billion in public health grants.
Arizona joins a 23-state coalition seeking a temporary restraining order to block the grant terminations enacted as a COVID-19 response.
HHS stated the COVID-19 pandemic is over and they will no longer waste taxpayer dollars, but Mayes estimates Arizona could lose over $239 million.
The lawsuit, filed in Rhode Island, argues the cuts violate the Administrative Procedure Act and threaten critical state public health services.
