A U.S. District Court judge sided with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) late Sunday night in a ruling that temporarily restores $12 million in funding to the group.
Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy abruptly cancelled previously awarded grants worth $18 million to AAP in December, in what the children’s health group called a “retaliatory move.”
U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell in Washington, D.C. agreed, restoring a portion of the funding as AAP’s lawsuit against the Trump administration plays out.
I read it as the judge thinking they have a good case so hand over most of it to keep them operating, then see how the case plays out
