Judge blocks Trump's EPA from terminating $14 billion in 'green bank' grants after accusations of fraud
Fox News
A federal judge blocked the EPA from terminating $14 billion in grants awarded to three climate groups by the Biden administration.
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin claimed the grant recipients engaged in mismanagement, fraud and self-dealing in announcing that he froze and moved to terminate the grants, but the judge said Zeldin's allegations were inadequate.
"At this juncture, EPA Defendants have not sufficiently explained why unilaterally terminating Plaintiffs’ grant awards was a rational precursor to reviewing" the green bank program, Chutkan wrote.
