flag CDC cut $38M in public health funds from Minnesota and three other states, citing priority shifts, but states call it political retaliation.

flag The CDC has canceled a $38 million five-year Public Health Infrastructure grant to Minnesota, part of broader cuts affecting California, Colorado, and Illinois. flag The funding supported emergency preparedness, data system modernization, workforce development, and services in rural and tribal communities. flag The CDC cited inconsistency with agency priorities, but Minnesota officials called the move politically motivated retaliation, undermining public health readiness. flag The state also lost $250,000 in injury prevention funding. flag Attorneys general from the four states have jointly challenged the cuts, which stem from a directive by the Office of Management and Budget, arguing they weaken national health resilience. flag The CDC has not provided further justification.
