Seattle judge orders Trump administration to unfreeze EV charger funding

A federal judge in Seattle on Tuesday ordered the Trump administration to reinstate federal funding for electric vehicle chargers in Washington and more than a dozen other states.

For months, billions of dollars from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Program, or NEVI, has been frozen as the Trump administration assesses guidelines established under former President Joe Biden.

U.S. District Court Judge Tana Lin’s preliminary injunction Tuesday reopens the funding in Washington and 13 other states that sued the administration.

The judge’s decision won’t go into effect until July 1, to allow the U.S. Department of Justice time to appeal. The case would next go to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
