17 states are suing Trump administration for blocking billions in funds for EV chargers

Quick Summary:

The Trump administration in February directed states to stop spending money for EV charging infrastructure that was allocated under President Joe Biden.

Some states with projects running under the program have already been reimbursed by the Biden-era federal funds.

During Trump’s first week back in office, he signed executive orders to pull the U.S.out of the Paris climate agreement again, reverse a 2030 target for electric vehicles to make up half of new cars sold, and end environmental justice efforts.
