The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administration confirmed Tuesday that $20 billion in what it called “gold bar” grants to eight recipients has been terminated.
“It is my commitment to President Trump, Congress, and you, that EPA will be an exceptional steward of your tax dollars,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said in a post on social media platform X, adding in a video that it’s a “high priority” to terminate those programs and that he has “officially terminated these grant agreements.”
