The blue states that filed a lawsuit have maintained most of the granting of diseases, while the red countries entitled “Trump Claopics” feels.

The Trump administration’s discounts to the centers of diseases control and prevention of health departments of the states and the local government have had largely uneven effects depending on the political tendencies of the state, according to the analysis of health news KFF. The countries that are led by democracy and blue tendencies in the court fought and have seen money for the public health efforts-while the Republican Party-led countries were subjected to significant losses.

In late March, the Ministry of Health and Humanitarian Services canceled nearly 700 centers to control diseases and prevent grants at the country – combined about 11 billion dollars. They were granted during the Covid-19s, and they supported efforts to vaccinate people, reduce health variations between demographic groups, upgrade old systems to detect the outbreak of infectious diseases, and employ workers in the field of community health.

Initially, the cancelors of the grants struck the blue and red countries almost equally. Democrats were four of the five judicial states that had the largest number of grants: California, Colombia Province, Illinois, and Massachusetts.

But after the lawyers and their rulers lifted about twenty blue states in the Federal Court and won a judicial order, the balance was reversed. Among the five states that have the most cancelled grants, the Republicans are led by: Texas, Georgia, Akllahoma and Ouhayu.

In the blue states, approximately 80 % of the cuts were restored in the CDC grant, compared to less than 5 % in the red states, according to the KFF Health News analysis. Grant amounts reported in the HHS database known as accountability tracking in the government grant system, or Taggs, often do not coincide with confirmed countries. Instead, this analysis focused on the number of grants.

This gap is an example of polarization that permeates health care issues, as access to safety network health programs, abortion rights and the ability of public health officials to respond to the threats of the disease significantly depending on the political party in power.

In an e -mail statement, HHS Andrew Nixon spokesperson said that the agency is “committed to protecting the health of every American, regardless of politics or geography. This funds were provided in response to the street epidemic, which has ended long ago. We will continue to work with countries to enhance public health in public health and ensure that the societies they need to respond to benefit from people.

Public health experts say that the funds concerned not only spent on activities related to Covid. It was also used to enhance public health infrastructure and help contain many types of viruses and diseases, including influise viruses, measles, RSV or respiratory virus.

“I truly supported infrastructure in all fields, especially in how the states respond to public health threats,” said Susan Kanasrara, Director of the United States Association in the United States.

Trump’s reductions came when the United States recorded The biggest measles In more than three decades and 266 dies in pediatrics during the last influenza season – The highest mentioned Health officials said in the interviews that public health departments have canceled vaccine clinics outside the epidemic since 2004.

After prohibiting the discounts of financing in the court, California kept every grant, the Trump administration tried again, while Texas remains the state whose grants were ended, with at least 30 grants, killing at least at least 16 people.

Colorado, who joined the lawsuit, obtained 11 grants at the beginning, but then 10 was kept. Meanwhile, she lost her neighboring cases that did not receive – Wyoming, Utah, Kansas, Nebraska, and Aklouma – 55 grants, while keeping it.

In Jackson, Ohio, half of the community workers came in the year one day in March to find that the Trump administration had canceled them five months ago, leaving the Ministry of Health in Jackson Province half a million dollars-and they are without jobs.

“I had to stop three employees in one day, and I had to do so before. We no longer have these people who communicate in Jackson County anymore,” said Health Commissioner Kevin Aston.

He said that at some point, funding helped 11 Apalashian Ohio. Now supports one.

Marsha Radabo, an employee who was reset, reduced her community healthy efforts: she was helping to provide hot meals to people who have no shelter and realized that many customers were unable to read or write, so she brought models such as Medicaid and the additional nutrition assistance program in their camp in a local park and helped fill them.

She said: “We will find them for rehabilitation places. We were getting out of the cleaning groups, blankets, tents, yellow -class sleeping bags and such things.” As an advisor, she also remembered people, “They care about them, and that they deserve to be a human being – because, often, they do not treat this way.”

Sasha Johnson, who led the health workers program in society, said people like Radabau were “mainly from a person walking 411”, they help the needy.

Radabau has partnership with a food bank to provide meals to the home heading.

Aston said that the sudden method lost money – which means that the boycott had to pay unemployment for more people – could destroy the health area financially. He said that the Midcycle financing was “really scary.”

Foreign Minister Robert F. Kennedy Junior, has long been active against Al -Qahham and promoter information to mislead the vaccine, CDC called “Csebul from corruption”. In HHS, he took steps to undermine vaccination in the United States and abroad.

Federal CDC financing financing More than half From the budgets of the Ministry of Governmental and Local Health, according to KFF, a non -profit health information that includes KFF Health News. It states that President Donald Trump won the 2024 elections 15 billion dollars has been allocated a center for control of diseases In 2023, those who were won by Democrat Kamala Harris, according to KFF.

This grant reflects the Trump administration throughout the country. It was more than half in the states that Trump won in 2024, with a total of 370 years at least before court procedures, according to the KFF Health News analysis.

Columbus, Ohio, received the Ministry of Health $ 6.2 million from granting the Center for Disease Control, but nearly half – 3 million dollars – disappeared with Trump discounts. Columbus Health Commissioner Michika Roberts said that the city leaked 11 people who have been investigating the outbreak of infectious diseases in places such as schools and the role of the elderly.

She also said that the city had planned to buy a new electronic health registration system for easy access to hospital records for patients – which may improve the discovery of diseases and provide better treatment for those who were injured – but it was placed on the ice.

“We have never obtained a MidcyCle grant, it is only withdrawn from us for no reason,” said Roberts. “This feeling of uncertainty is stressful.”

Columbus did not receive its money directly from the Disease Control Center. Instead, the city gave the city some of the money it received from the federal government. Ohayu, led by Republican Governor Mike Dynon and a Republican lawyer, did not charge to prevent discounts in financing.

Columbus A lawsuit against the federal government in April To keep its money, along with other municipalities led by Democrats in the states governed by Republicans: Harris Province, Texas, Houston’s home; The capital of the capital in Nashville and Davidson Province in Tennessee; And Kandas City, Missouri. A federal judge in June banned these cuts.

As of mid -August, Columbus was waiting for money. Roberts said the city will not rehabilitate employees because federal funding is expected to end in December.

Joe Grogan, a researcher at the Chevir Institute at the University of Southern California and former director of the White House of Local Policy Council in Trump’s first state, said local agencies and local agencies “are not entitled” to federal funds, which were granted “to deal with an emergency” ended.

“We have been throwing money outside the door in the past five years,” said Grugan from the federal government. “I don’t understand why there will be controversy in the uninterrupted money.”

Ken Gordon, a spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Ohio, wrote in an email that $ 250 million in grants helped, among other things, to upgrade the system of reporting diseases and enhance the public health laboratory test.

Some HHS funding for years, including four grants to promote public health in the Indian country, a grant for non -profit organizations in Minnesota, which focuses on reducing drug abuse disorders, and a few universities on occupational safety, HIV and tuberculosis, and more.

Brent, the chief governmental relations official of the Evanruption Directors Association, said the discounts were the “expected result” of a mutation, a bust, panic, and the neglect of “financing” for public health.

The association represents 64 immunization programs in the state, local and regional, which said Ewig will be less ready to respond to diseases, including measles.

“The system is red.”

methodology

The KFF Health News analysis of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sought to answer four questions: 1) How many grants have been terminated in the United States under Trump’s administration since March? 2) What countries have seen most of the severed grants? 3) What is grant? And 4) Does the grants affect the blue, red and purple cases differently? This follows a similar analysis by KFF Health News for an article on Grants end at the national national level.

Our primary data source was the Ministry of Health and Humanitarian Services website that offers grants. We compared a preliminary list to finish grants from April 3 with one from July 11 to determine the number of grants that have been restored. The USSpending.gov database helped us by tracking grants by country.

To classify countries politically, we follow the same steps from April coverage From the national health grants. The “blue” states, if the Democrats completely controlled the state government, or if the majority of voters preferred the democratic presidential candidates in the last three elections (2016, 2020, 2024). The “red” states have been classified similarly with regard to the Republican Party. The “purple” states divided the states of the states politically and/or were generally considered the countries of the presidential election battlefield. The result was 25 red countries, 17 blue countries, and eight purple states. Colombia’s boycott is blue as blue using similar methods.

This analysis does not explain the re -grants of possible grants in the local judicial states, where money was granted indirectly and not directly from the Center for Disease Control; Only the recipient’s position is, and the grants that have been terminated are excluded from the compressed countries of free associations and other foreign entities that have received direct grants from the Disease Control Center. At least 40 CDC grants, which were intended for global health efforts, or assisting public health activities in other countries yet, have been completed Trump administration order For the Center for Diseases to withdraw support for the World Health Organization.
