Earthjustice: $5 Billion Victory for Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure
Last week, 17 states and a coalition of environmental groups won a lawsuit in federal court to restore $5 billion in funding for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program. The Trump administration unlawfully froze funds that Congress had allocated, blocking a buildout of EV charging equipment across the U.S. The court's decision is a complete victory for us — and because Earthjustice and other environmental groups joined the lawsuit, the order applies across all 50 states, not just the 17 that sued. Long-delayed charging projects can now move forward, which will benefit the public by making the charging network safer and more reliable. Good news HERE.
