Coalition of 25 states sues Trump admin over Medicaid work rule designed to prevent fraud

A coalition of 25 states and the District of Columbia is suing the Trump administration over new Medicaid work requirements, arguing the policy unlawfully restricts access to healthcare. The lawsuit challenges an Interim Final Rule (IFR) requiring individuals to prove exemptions for work, volunteer, or education mandates, which the states claim violates federal law and Congress' intent.
