A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to restore $500 million in NIH grants to UCLA, citing legal violations.
A federal judge in California, Rita Lin, has ordered the Trump administration to restore 500 National Institutes of Health grants to UCLA, worth over $500 million, reversing suspensions imposed in July amid allegations of antisemitism.
The ruling, issued on September 23, 2025, found the government violated the Administrative Procedure Act by terminating grants en masse without individualized justifications.
The decision also restores three Department of Transportation grants and an unspecified number of Department of Defense grants.
The funds support critical research in areas like cancer, dementia, heart disease, and robotics, and are vital to graduate training and the University of California’s research enterprise.
The move is a major setback for the administration’s demand for a $1.2 billion settlement, which over 600 Jewish UC community members and faculty groups have called unfounded and punitive.
The case continues amid legal challenges to federal funding cuts, with Lin ruling that a recent Supreme Court decision limiting grant-related lawsuits does not apply here.
The administration must report compliance by September 29.
