Trump administration admits grants for clean energy were canceled based on politics
The Trump administration acknowledged canceling $7.6 billion in clean energy grants for 16 states that voted for Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, citing political identity as the reason. The Energy Department claimed the projects were terminated for failing to advance energy needs, but Democrats argue the cuts were politically motivated and harm working families.
