SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A federal judge has partially granted a preliminary injunction that sought to release funds for the build out of electric vehicle chargers in more than a dozen states. The decision comes after 16 states and the District of Columbia sued the Trump administration for blocking funding for EV chargers that was approved in 2021 under President Joe Biden. The judge has ordered that money be freed up in 14 of the states but not in D.C., Minnesota and Vermont. She says the Trump administration overstepped its constitutional authority when it froze the funding previously approved by Congress in 2021.
