MI Attorney General Dana Nessel alongside a coalition of 19 attorneys general secured a preliminary injunction to stop the dismantling of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. “I am greatly relieved the Court blocked the Trump Administration’s unlawful attempt to cut off vital resources that help protect our communities from outbreaks and ensure Michigan residents can access critical medical care. Had this action gone into effect, it certainly would have resulted in immeasurable harm and countless lives needlessly lost. This is the 11th preliminary injunction my colleagues and I have secured against the White House’s illegal actions – clear proof that our efforts are making a real difference. I remain committed to defending the health and safety of our residents.” – AG Nessel
