The Trump administration's fiscal year 2026 budget proposal, referred to as the "Skinny Budget," indicates a shift in federal energy priorities with a focus on reducing expenditures related to climate change initiatives. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is facing funding cuts under this budget, which aims to save approximately $15 billion by scaling back investments in programs labeled by critics as the "Green New Scam." Concurrently, the EPA has petitioned the D.C. Circuit to resume efforts to recover billions of dollars allocated by Congress to nonprofits selected during the Biden administration to implement climate change projects. These developments align with ongoing federal government actions to roll back climate change policies under Executive Order 14260.
