Lawsuit alleges USDA illegally cut rural solar program
Original: Lawsuit alleges USDA illegally slashed rural solar development program
The US Department of Agriculture is facing a lawsuit alleging it illegally slashed a federal program that supports solar development in rural America. The legal challenge argues the cuts violated statutory requirements, and the dispute is drawing attention to the future of federal clean-energy funding for rural communities and the political fight over renewable energy policy in Washington.
Why now: Federal support for rural solar is under scrutiny amid broader battles over clean-energy funding cuts.
