A federal judge on Friday ruled President Donald Trump’s administration unlawfully suspended funding awarded to support the expansion of electric vehicle charger infrastructure, in a victory for 20
Democratic-led states that sued over the action.
Shortly after Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy took office in February, the DOT suspended the
$5 billion National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program, which was part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that Biden signed into law in 2021.
The administration argued it was but a temporary pause, which it later ended after the judge earlier issued a preliminary injunction and the agency issued new guidance.
But Lin said the 2021 law never contemplated even temporary pauses in funding for the construction of EV infrastructure.
