United States of America President, Donald Trump’s appointed new administrator for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Lee Zeldin, said he has cancelled a Joe Biden-era $50 million environmental justice grant to an organisation that believes “climate justice travels through a Free Palestine”.

According to Fox News, Zeldin, who was sworn in as the EPA administrator at the end of January 2025, was on “The Story with Martha MacCallum” on Thursday, where he spoke about cancelling the grant.

“Just earlier today, I cancelled a $50 million grant to an organisation called the Climate Justice Alliance.

“They say that climate justice runs through a free Palestine. I think that the American taxpayer wouldn’t want $50 million going to this left-wing advocacy group. It’s cancelled,” he said.

Zeldin also noted that Congress has advocated against the grant.

In the past days after Trump’s inauguration as the US 47th president, he has reversed some decisions taken under Biden’s administration.

DAILY POST recalls that Trump ditched Biden’s paper straws policy for the US return to plastic usage.
