Abstract
In 2024, 17 states filed a lawsuit in the Eastern District of Texas against the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and HHS, asking the court to strike down the new HHS 504 regulations and declare that Congress did not have the authority to enact Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Now, the parties have filed a Joint Status Report on this important litigation. See Texas v. Becerra, No. 5:24–CV–00225, Doc. 50 (N. D. Tex 02/19/25).
