AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Right
A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the EPA from clawing back some $20 billion in climate money the Trump administration said was shoved out the door by a departing Biden administration.
U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan said the Environmental Protection Agency gave “no legal justification” for why it tried to reclaim the money or given the recipients of the money no chance to object or challenge the decision.
She issued a temporary restraining order against the EPA.
