Summary
Inclusiv, one of five Clean Communities Investment Accelerator (CCIA) award recipients under the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), has sued the Trump administration and Citibank for attempting to terminate their funding. Inclusiv argues that it is unlawful for President Trump to withhold allocated funds and terminate a program created and funded by Congress. The plaintiffs allege that the Trump administration has violated the Administrative Procedure Act, the separation of powers, and other federal laws and regulations, while Citibank has breached its contract. On April 15, 2025, the case was consolidated with other similar cases. Updates can be found under Climate United Fund v. Citibank (25-cv-698).
