Despite Trump’s recent executive actions targeting climate programs, most Inflation Reduction Act investments that advance energy justice have not changed or stopped. Of the $369 billion allocated for climate and energy programs, a significant portion remains actively deployed to advance energy equity and sustainability in disadvantaged communities.
