Clearinghouse coding complete

Case Summary

This case involves a challenge to the Trump administration's effort to freeze federal grants for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. On May 7, 2025, seventeen states and the District of Columbia sued the Department of Transportation and various sub-agencies and officials to stop the implementation of Executive Order 14,154, "Terminating the Green New Deal." The states bring claims under the Administrative Procedure Act and the Constitution, alleging that the suspension of formula grants for EV charging stations is unlawful and violates separation of powers. The case was assigned to District Judge Tanya Lin.

Also on May 7, the states filed a motion for a preliminary injunction.

The case is ongoing.
