AGs ask courts to restore NIH vital medical research funds, calling the cuts illegal
Briefly

A coalition led by New York Attorney General James, comprising 15 state counterparts, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration's termination of NIH research grants that are essential for life-saving medical advancements. Since March, NIH has cut millions in funding to various projects, affecting major public health initiatives and scientific progress. The coalition argues these actions breach federal law due to lack of justification and explanation for the abrupt policy changes, which have particularly impacted projects at the State University of New York (SUNY).
The coalition claims NIH's funding cuts violate federal law as the agency provided no rationale for the significant grant terminations impacting vital research.
James pointed out that NIH, as the largest public medical research funder, has compromised essential initiatives by withdrawing nearly $4.5 million in New York funding.
