"A federal judge for the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia today granted in part a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump-Vance administration’s unlawful attempt to gut the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program (TPPP), a bipartisan-supported program that has helped drive down teen pregnancy rates for more than 15 years. The ruling in Hennepin County, MN v. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services halts the administration’s effort to force grantees into non-evidence-based, abstinence-only curricula."

"A coalition of organizations and local governments filed a lawsuit today in the U.S. District Court of the District of Columbia challenging the Trump-Vance administration’s unlawful decision to replace the longstanding evidence-based framework of the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program (TPPP) – a program that was put in place with bipartisan Congressional support more than 15 years ago – with an ideological effort focused solely on the administration’s political goals.
"The suit comes after the administration issued two new Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs), imposing new criteria for funding awards pursuant to the program, and then rashly cancelled, just 72 hours later, the vast majority of active awards implementing the program midstream."
