U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon ruled the government unlawfully terminated 1,400 humanities grants totaling $100 million in April the previous year. The cuts were part of a cost-reduction drive led by billionaire Elon Musk via the Department of Government Efficiency. The ruling found DOGE lacked the legal authority to cancel the congressionally appropriated funds awarded to humanities organizations, scholars, writers, and research institutions.
