- A federal judge declared the Trump administration unlawfully terminated $7 billion in grant funding for clean energy programs in disadvantaged communities.
- The Solar for All program — established during the Biden administration as part of the Inflation Reduction Act — was the specific program whose funding was at issue.
- Solar for All had provided dozens of grants, per the source text.
Why it matters: The ruling affirms the administration cannot unilaterally cancel $7 billion in Inflation Reduction Act clean energy grants earmarked for disadvantaged communities, adding judicial weight to funding the administration had stripped away from a specific IRA program.
