Children's charity suing HHS for revoking waivers for faith-based organizations
Fox News
The Health and Human Services (HHS) Department is facing a fresh lawsuit after its recent decision to revoke waivers from faith-based organizations that seek to provide services in accordance with their beliefs.
It targets an Obama-era grant rule that prohibits discrimination on the basis of "non-merit factors such as age, disability, sex, race, color, national origin, religion, gender identity, or sexual orientation." Exemptions to this rule were granted under Trump but later repealed by now-HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra.
The lawsuit, brought by the conservative Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), argues that revocation is unconstitutional and if it were to enforce the Obama-era rule, it would be exceeding its statutory authority.
