The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) was the largest recipient identified.

A new investigation by Jewish Breaking News has found that a U.S. federal health agency awarded nearly $80 million in grants to 14 organizations accused of ties to Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorist groups. The report states that 87% of the funding was allocated during the Biden administration, with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) identified as the largest recipient. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is now reviewing allegations involving more than $30 million intended for Afghan refugee assistance. CAIR has denied the allegations, asserting that the programs were fully compliant with government oversight and served thousands of newcomers.
The report adds to a growing body of investigative reporting on U.S. government funding and its potential links to entities with alleged terrorist connections. The Zioneer has previously covered related stories, including a USAID inquiry that identified 101 UNRWA staff as Hamas operatives involved in the October 7 attacks, and multiple rounds of U.S. Treasury sanctions targeting Hezbollah-linked entities and financial networks. These reports underscore ongoing concerns about the diversion of U.S. taxpayer funds to groups hostile to Israel and American interests.
