Radio Free Asia (RFA) has sued the U.S. Agency for Global Media’s (USAGM), which administers grants to RFA, for cancelling federal funds appropriated by Congress to support its work holding accountable authoritarian regimes in Asia. The plaintiffs argue that the cancellation of grants violate the Administrative Procedure Act, the International Broadcasting Act and appropriations law, as well as the separation of powers, the Take Care Clause, the Appropriations Clause, the Spending Clause and the Presentment Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
