“MAHA” is a cringey rebrand effort and a superficial one at that.
The actual policies being pushed are directly counter to the stated intent of their 70 page report.
Save yourself the read. Also 70 pages to tell us what we already know…let’s save the trees too.

Civil Action No. 25-cv-10912-ADB
ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFFS'
MOTION FOR A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER
BURROUGHS, D.J.
For purposes of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(b), the Plaintiffs have made a
sufficient showing that they have provided notice to Defendants and that, unless their Motion for
a Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO"), [ECF No. 3 (the "Motion")], is granted, they will sustain immediate and irreparable injury before there is an opportunity to hear from all parties.
Thus, a TRO is justified to preserve the status quo pending a hearing and the Plaintiffs' Motion is GRANTED.
Defendants and their officers, employees, servants, agents, appointees, and successors are hereby enjoined from implementing, instituting, maintaining, or giving effect to the DOE Policy Flash: Adjusting Department of Energy Grant Policy for Institutions of Higher Education (IHE)
(the "Rate Cap Policy") in any form; from otherwise modifying negotiated indirect cost rates
except as permitted by statute and by the regulations of the Office of Management and the Budget; and from terminating any grants pursuant to the Rate Cap Policy or based on a grantee's refusal to accept an indirect cost rate less than their negotiated rate.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreia325wrn6a7z22jnfx65raomvwhuvm75bammo3al4epa3kcnjapsi)
