The Trump administration is canceling billions of dollars in public health programs and plans to cut hundreds of environmental-protection grants. The funds address a huge variety of issues, including childhood asthma, Texas’s measles outbreak, wildfire preparedness, suicide prevention, and clean drinking water. State health departments began receiving notices this week that the public health grants, totaling more than $12 billion, were terminated immediately. That money was originally allocated to fight the pandemic. A Department of Health and Human Services spokesman said the department “will no longer waste billions of taxpayer dollars responding to a nonexistent pandemic that Americans moved on from years ago.” Democrats are protesting that cancellation of the environmental grants — which fund what the Environmental Protection Agency now deems “unnecessary programs” — violates both contractual obligations and court orders.
