民主党议员指责特朗普政府滥用职权,此前官员在一份联邦法院文件中承认,他们“完全”基于各州的“政治立场”以及2024年大选唐纳德·特朗普是否赢得该州选票,建议终止数十亿美元的清洁能源项目拨款。

在7月15日的一份文件中——该文件是一起寻求推翻该决定的集体诉讼的一部分——官员们表示,能源部已向管理和预算办公室提交了一份名单,列出了该部建议取消600多项拨款的受助州,这些州均为前副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯获胜的州,且该州有两名参议员与民主党党团结盟。最终,管理和预算办公室于2025年10月终止了其中284项拨款。

此举符合特朗普第二任期内针对一系列被视为政治对手的报复性整体政策,也符合他阻挠民主党领导的州获得联邦资金的激进举措。今年早些时候,特朗普政府曾试图冻结五个蓝州的100亿美元社会服务资金,随后才放弃了这一计划。

今年2月,联邦紧急事务管理局向各州发放了50多亿美元逾期已久的灾后援助,但将几个特朗普与州长发生过冲突的民主党领导州排除在外。国土安全部否认该决定存在政治因素。

这些事件发生之际,管理和预算办公室主任拉塞尔·沃特展开了一项前所未有的行动,试图扩大对联邦支出流程的新权限——这一行动在去年年底明尼苏达州曝出大规模欺诈指控后迅速加速。

政府削减哈里斯赢得选举人票的州的拨款这一消息,最初由《纽约时报》报道。此案的原告是加州大学的一组研究人员,他们认为特朗普政府出于政治原因将联邦拨款列为终止对象。

在7月15日的文件中,能源部表示,其“承认纳入10月通知批次的拨款完全基于拨款受助州的政治身份,即受助方的所在地和/或项目实施地是否属于蓝州或非蓝州”。

参议院少数党领袖、民主党人查克·舒默称能源部的承认“是前所未有的特朗普式行径,我们绝不能对此习以为常”。
“特朗普承认他正在从辛勤工作的家庭手中夺走一切,只为报复那些没有投票给他的美国人。这令人作呕且精神失常,”舒默在X平台上写道,“他的自尊心如此脆弱,竟会惩罚那些连温饱都成问题的家庭,只为换取一点报复的快感。”

马里兰州联邦众议员杰米·拉斯金表示,特朗普政府的行为是“对美国的深重背叛”,并补充说这些资金应立即恢复给蓝州。
“这种大规模的党派报复令人震惊、愤怒、危险、违法、违宪、不爱国,是对共和国的重大冒犯,”拉斯金在X平台上写道,“特朗普清楚这些拜登时代的拨款对美国民众有多重要,这就是为什么他没有削减红州的拨款,却切断了蓝州的资金。”

俄亥俄州联邦众议员玛西·卡普图尔和华盛顿州联邦参议员帕蒂·默里——两人均为两院中拨款委员会的民主党成员——在周五的联合声明中表示:“这一惊人的承认表明,总统及其团队腐败地滥用职权,扼杀优质工作岗位,并因政治观点惩罚辛勤工作的家庭。”
“如此动用联邦政府武器 outright un-American,”议员们补充道。

Trump administration admits it canceled clean-energy grants in states that voted for Kamala Harris

Democratic lawmakers accused the Trump administration of abusing its power after officials admitted in a federal court filing they recommended terminating several billion dollars in grants for clean-energy projects based “solely” on states’ “political identity” and whether President Donald Trump won the vote there in the 2024 election.

In a July 15 filing that is part of a class action lawsuit seeking to overturn the decision, officials said the Energy Department sent to the Office of Management and Budget a list of more than 600 grants it recommended be canceled from recipients in states where former Vice President Kamala Harris won the vote, and that have two senators that caucus with Democrats. Ultimately, the Office of Management and Budget terminated 284 grants in October 2025.

The move is in line with Trump’s broader second-term push to seek retribution against a range of perceived political opponents – and with his aggressive efforts to stymie federal funding in Democratic-led states. Earlier this year, the administration tried to freeze $10 billion in funding for social services from five blue states before dropping that effort.

In February, the Federal Emergency Management Agency released more than $5 billion in long-delayed disaster aid to states, but left out several Democratic-led states where Trump had clashed with governors. The Department of Homeland Security denied politics played a role in the decision.

Those developments came during the height of an unprecedented effort by OMB Director Russell Vought to exert new authority and power over the federal spending process — a push that rapidly accelerated in the wake of sweeping fraud allegations in Minnesota late last year.

The revelation of the administration’s move to cut grants in states where Harris won the electoral votes was first reported by the New York Times. The plaintiffs in the case, a group of University of California researchers, argue the Trump administration targeted federal grants for termination based on political reasons.

In the July 15 filing, the DOE said it “accepts that the inclusion of grants in the October notice tranche was based solely on the political identity of the grant recipient’s state, i.e., whether the recipient’s location and/or place of performance was in a Blue State or a non-Blue State.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat, called DOE’s admission “unprecedented Trumpism and something we should never become numb to.”

“Trump admits he’s ripping the rug out from under hardworking families so he can get revenge on the Americans who didn’t vote for him. It’s sick and deranged,” Schumer wrote on X. “His ego is so fragile, he’ll punish families already struggling to put food on the table for a little bit of vengeance.”

Maryland US Rep. Jamie Raskin said the Trump administration’s actions are a “deep betrayal of America,” adding that the funds should be restored to blue states immediately.

“This mass partisan retribution is appalling, outrageous, dangerous, lawless, unconstitutional, unpatriotic and a massive offense against the Republic,” Raskin wrote on X. “Trump knew how important these Biden-era grants were to the American people, which is why he did not cut them off to the red states, but did cut them off to the blue states.”

Ohio Rep. Marcy Kaptur and Washington Sen. Patty Murray, Democrats who sit on the appropriations committee in their respective chambers, said in a joint statement Friday, “This is an astounding admission that the President and his team corruptly abused their power to kill good jobs and punish hard-working families because of their political views.”

“Weaponizing the Federal government like this is outright un-American,” the lawmakers added.
