| Dear Friend, |
| Today Earthjustice filed our fourth lawsuit against the current Trump administration. Trump froze funding from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the most significant climate legislation in U.S. history. Now, we're suing to unfreeze IRA grants for farmers and nonprofits working on climate resilience in their communities and on their farms. |
| The reality of this freeze is that the Trump administration is breaking promises. Many grant recipients have already invested in projects to cut carbon pollution and adapt to climate change. And now, with the sweep of a pen, the president of the United States is unlawfully withholding the funds they were expecting. This violation of trust is why we're going to court. |

| This was one of President’s Trump first moves in office — ordering a halt to federal spending appropriated through the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). |
| These two acts are the single biggest investments in climate action and clean energy development in American history. They jump-started entire industries, funded new manufacturing around the country, created thousands of jobs, and benefited communities in all 50 states. |
| Now, the funding limbo is derailing climate action and causing economic harm. |
| This is not government efficiency. Freezing funds wastes money already spent on projects left unfinished and hurts working people across the country. |
| At Earthjustice, we represent our clients for free because justice should not have a price tag. That means we rely on supporters like you to power this work. Please consider making a donation today. |
