On top of layoffs, HHS ordered to cut 35% of spending on contracts Federal health agencies have to slash their spending on contracts by more than a third, on top of the 10,000-person staffing cuts which started this week.

"The Trump administration is totally destroying the infrastructure of the nation's public health system. It's amazing that they are looking to cut the parts of our health system that provide the best value for prevention and wellness."
