Josh Schnell and Sam Van Kopp filed an amicus brief on behalf of 13 Members of Congress (7 Senators and 6 Representatives) in support of the plaintiffs in NJ et al. v. OMB et al. (D. Mass).
Plaintiffs in the case are 21 states and the District of Columbia who are challenging the Trump administration’s termination of billions of dollars of grants and other federal financial assistance agreements. The amicus brief is focused on bedrock principles of constitutional law that prohibit federal agencies from terminating grant agreements in violation of statutory mandates, congressional policy objectives, and appropriations laws.
