Controversial Termination of Solar Grants and Tariffs on Indian Oil

The Trump administration is planning to kill Solar for All — one of the largest federal solar programs in U.S. history, with $7 billion aimed at expanding solar access in low-income communities. POLITICO’s Alex Guillén breaks down why EPA is targeting this program, along with the political and legal fights that may lie ahead. Plus, President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday imposing an additional 25 percent in tariffs on India over the country’s purchases of Russian oil.
