Supreme Court Allows Trump to Cut Medical Research Grants

Supreme Court Allows Trump to Cut Medical Research Grants

The Supreme Court made a decision about some research grants.

The Trump administration wanted to stop giving money for some studies.

These were related to things like diversity, equity, and inclusion.

A judge had said they couldn't cut the money, but the Supreme Court has now allowed some cuts.

The court also said researchers might be able to sue to get their money back.

The administration said it was withholding a lot of money, but those who were supposed to receive the money said that number was made up.
