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.”
