The Trump administration has abruptly revoked approximately $11.4 billion in federal grants, originally allocated for addiction treatment, mental health services, and other public health programs. These funds, which were set to run through September 2025, were primarily COVID-era grants intended to support public health initiatives at the state and county levels, as well as nonprofit organizations.

Keith Humphreys, an addiction policy researcher at Stanford University, criticized the decision, warning it would lead to immediate layoffs and disruptions in treatment. “Services will be dropped in the middle. Bang, the clinic is closing,” he said.

A spokesperson for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) defended the cuts, stating that since the COVID-19 pandemic has ended, the government will no longer “waste billions of taxpayer dollars responding to a non-existent pandemic.” The administration intends to redirect funding to address chronic diseases instead.

While fatal overdoses related to fentanyl and other substances have declined in recent years—partly due to increased addiction treatment funding under the Biden administration—more than 84,000 people still die from drug-related causes annually in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
