immediately reinstate the funding for over 50 grantees nationwide
Call on RFK Jr. and HHS to immediately reinstate funding for more than 50 recently canceled Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program grants nationwide.
Occurrences
Evidence
AP reported that a federal judge blocked HHS from enforcing a July 2025 policy document on Teen Pregnancy Prevention grants, and that the ruling applied to all grantees, including nonprofits, public health departments, tribes and universities.
AP reported that Judge Ann Aiken issued a preliminary injunction blocking HHS from pulling sexual education funding over curricula mentioning diverse gender identities, covering PREP and Title V Sexual Risk Avoidance Education funds.
Axios reported that HHS notified 81 Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program grantees it would discontinue funding early, and that almost 150 members of Congress wrote to HHS Secretary Tom Price requesting an explanation.
The Guardian reported that Senator Patty Murray criticized Kennedy's HHS restructuring and warned about health-agency funding cuts and possible illegal impoundment of funds allocated by Congress.
Assessments
The evidence shows related same-term relief: federal courts blocked HHS actions affecting Teen Pregnancy Prevention and other sex-education grants. But it does not establish that RFK Jr. or HHS immediately reinstated funding for the more than 50 canceled Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program grants nationwide, nor that Murray materially caused a full reinstatement. Murray publicly opposed RFK Jr.-era HHS cuts, so this merits partial credit rather than full delivery.
