Obama Judge Revives $20B Biden Green Scheme, Which Includes Stacey Abrams-Linked NGO
Trump's EPA immediately appealed the ruling.

A federal judge ruled late Tuesday evening that the Environmental Protection Agency must immediately restart a $20 billion Biden-era green energy program that the Trump administration terminated last month, restarting the flow of taxpayer funds to eight environmentalist groups, including one linked to Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams.

Judge Tanya Chutkan of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, whom former president Barack Obama appointed in 2013, issued a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump EPA’s actions, but did not immediately explain the ruling.
Plaintiffs—a coalition of eight environmental groups that the Biden administration awarded massive grants to under the program—had asked for the injunction, arguing that terminating the program would cause them irreparable damage.
