The EPA, under the Trump administration, terminated a $7 billion grant program aimed at funding residential solar projects for lower-income households. This action, part of a broader effort to hinder the shift towards cleaner energy, eliminated the Solar for All program, which had awarded funds to 60 recipients. The EPA claims the program's authority was eliminated by a recent tax law, while opponents argue the termination is illegal and will raise energy costs. Legal challenges are expected.
