## Resource

The Trump administration admits it canceled $7.6 billion in clean energy grants, targeting 16 states that voted for Kamala Harris — a move critics call politically motivated, corrupt, and un-American. Energy officials previously claimed the cuts were based on economic viability, but court filings now reveal grants were selectively eliminated based on political leanings, using keywords like “diversity” and “COVID-19” to exclude projects that didn’t align with the administration’s agenda. Democrats and environmental groups blast the move as punishing voters and killing jobs, while the Sierra Club calls it a brazen attack on clean energy and public interest — with billions potentially funneled to fossil fuel companies instead.
