?? Trump made cuts to agencies across the board - that’s not an RFK thing. So yeah, some research funding to autism related studies is affected. Primarily through the DoEd cuts.

It wasn’t targeted, and even if it was, trying to link defunding with an initiative to find causes by joining datasets seems either disingenuous or ignorant.
