In apparent defiance of court orders, the Trump administration is refusing to release congressionally authorized spending for electric vehicle infrastructure, Politico reported.
On Thursday, the Trump administration halted $5 billion in funding allocated via the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program, appearing to violate the 1974 Impoundment Control Act as well as multiple court orders requiring the Trump administration to halt its unilateral funding freeze.
According to a letter from a Federal Highway Administration official, Emily Biondi, the administration is halting “new obligations” under the electric vehicle infrastructure program while allowing states to receive reimbursements for “existing obligations.”
“Under the Constitution, it is Congress, not the president, that authorizes spending decisions.”
Do we really think this congress would be any different?
I don’t understand what you’re saying. Could you clarify?Edit: I get it now, you’re saying that Congress would spend the same. My bad.
The guy they constantly let be above the law is ignoring the law? Shock.
Guess he was right: America is a failed state.
masks off now
How many masks does this guy have? The layers must be caked on at this point. Is that why it’s orange?
