Gov. Tony Evers on Thursday announced that Wisconsin is joining a new lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from blocking over $60 million in National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program funding that Wisconsin expected to receive to support electric vehicle infrastructure projects.
At issue in the lawsuit is approximately $62.65 million in critical infrastructure funding — including funding for 15 already approved electric vehicle infrastructure projects across the state. The lawsuit seeks to force the Trump administration to stop obstructing infrastructure investments that Wisconsin and other states were expecting to receive, and to immediately release the funding. The lawsuit further argues that the Trump administration’s attempts to block electric vehicle infrastructure funding that was already approved by the U.S. Congress violate constitutional checks and balances.Â
