Lawmakers accuse Trump energy chief of lying about clean energy funds

Democratic lawmakers are calling on the Justice Department to consider criminal charges against Energy Secretary Chris Wright, accusing him of lying to Congress regarding the termination of $7.6 billion in clean energy grants. They allege Wright falsely stated that the funding cuts were not based on political considerations, despite court documents showing the Department of Energy acknowledged the projects were targeted based on whether they were in Democratic-leaning states. The lawmakers argue these statements violate federal law and detail that the grant terminations were solely motivated by the political affiliation of the recipient states.
