Washington is co-leading a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from illegally terminating billions in congressionally approved funding for electric vehicle infrastructure – including a combined $1 billion in the plaintiff states, Attorney General Nick Brown announced today. Unless the courts check the president’s overreach, Washington stands to lose over $71 million in electric vehicle infrastructure funding. “The president’s illegal claw-backs aren’t spending reductions – they’re cash grabs that rob taxpayers, steamroll Congress, and stifle critical economic development,” Brown said. “Washingtonians are switching to electric vehicles at one of the highest rates in the nation. They deserve safe, reliable infrastructure to get their families from Point A to B.”
