The Trump administration targeted four Democrat-led states with cuts to funding already authorized by Congress for HIV/AIDS monitoring, STD prevention, and studies assessing health risks for people of color. The funds are administered through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and total roughly $600 million. California, Minnesota, Illinois and Colorado sued seeking reinstatement and an immediate restraining order, arguing the rescissions are illegal and would irreparably harm the states. The complaint characterizes the cuts as based on political animus and names Russel Vought with ties to Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation. Advocacy groups emphasized that investing in HIV prevention saves money.
