Appellate Court
D.C. Circuit

Goal

  • Compel agency action
  • Declaration that agency action is unlawful

Litigation Content

Why this Matters:

Plaintiffs argue that the defendant’s notice to grantees to demonstrate alignment with President Trump’s executive orders violates the Administrative Procedure Act, the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause, and usurps Congress’ Article I legislative powers. Plaintiffs are awarded continuing grants under the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, a program established and funded by Congress since 2010 to educate adolescents about sexual and reproductive health. This appeal addresses whether the district court erred in finding that the Plaintiffs would not face imminent harm from the Defendants’ actions and therefore would not be granted preliminary relief.

Potential Impact:

Terminating federal funding would limit grantees’ ability to offer these educational services and continue efforts to improve the health and well-being of program participants.
