Association of American Medical Colleges v. National Institutes of Health (Res Grants MA Dist)
Case Overview
A coalition of state attorneys general sued the National Institute of Health, the acting NIH Director, HHS, and the acting HHS secretary over the Trump administration's new 14% cap on overhead for federal research grants, alleging that it violates the Administrative Procedures Act. This case was consolidated with similar cases brought by the Association of American Medical Colleges and Association of American Universities.
The Application
The plaintiffs argue that the NIH's implementation of the 14% overhead cap either violated APA procedural requirements or constitutes arbitrary and capricious agency action that impairs academic research institutions' ability to conduct federally funded research.
The Conclusion
The case was decided by Judge Angel Kelley in Massachusetts District Court; the specific ruling outcome is not provided in the available summary.
