NEARLY two dozen states are suing the Trump administration over its cancellation of a $7 billion grant program aimed at expanding solar energy in low-income communities, according to court papers. In a statement on Thursday, California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced two lawsuits by a group of states that received grants under the Environmental Protection Agency’s Solar for All program. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced the termination of the program in August. The agency said in an email that it would not comment on pending litigation. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes said cancellation of the program would impact 900,000 low-income households nationwide. Some 11,000 low-income households in Arizona will see a 20% spike in energy bills after the state lost $156 million for Solar for All. The lawsuit is among dozens the country’s 23 Democratic attorneys general have filed against the Trump administration on issues ranging from suspension of federal grants to immigration and deployment of National Guard troops to cities. “Without this program, for many Arizonans, clean energy will be out of reach,“ Mayes said in an online call. The first complaint seeks monetary damages and was filed on Wednesday in the Court of Federal Claims. A second suit will seek reinstatement of the program and is expected to be filed later on Thursday in federal court in Washington state, Bonta’s statement said. California will lose around $250 million in congressionally obligated funds for the program, Bonta said. “The Trump administration is trying to hold us in the past, tethered to fossil fuel companies,“ he said in the online call. “In doing so, Trump is making America more expensive and more polluted.” The One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed into law by U.S. President Donald Trump in July eliminated the source of funding for a program Zeldin termed a “boondoggle.” Trump has rolled back federal support for solar and wind energy, calling the renewable resources expensive and unreliable. Mayes said cancellation of the program would hit disadvantaged communities, citing the Hopi tribe of northern Arizona, which was slated to get a $25 million award to bring electricity, often for the first time, to hundreds of homes using solar panels and battery storage systems. The complaints come 10 days after a group of solar companies and labor unions also sued to restore the program. In addition to California and Arizona, states participating in the lawsuits include Maryland, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin and the city of Washington D.C. With Democrats in the minority in both houses of Congress, and many Democratic governors wary of crossing Trump, the attorneys general have actively challenged the legality of his policies. - Reuters

KUALA LUMPUR: The government will continue implementing progressive reforms in investment and trade policies to strengthen Malaysia’s global competitiveness. The Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry stated that various approaches and strategies are being executed through a Whole-of-Government approach via the ministry and its agencies. These initiatives include introducing the New Investment Incentive Framework and strengthening supply chain ecosystems between local companies and multinational corporations. Malaysia recorded an encouraging foreign direct investment performance in the first half of 2025 with a net inflow of RM17.2 billion. This represents an increase from the RM14.8 billion recorded during the same period in 2024. The ministry highlighted Malaysia’s advantages including strong economic fundamentals, strategic geographical position, and broad trade network. These factors have enhanced the country’s resilience in facing global and regional crises according to the ministry’s written parliamentary reply. Malaysia maintained a current account surplus of RM17 billion in the first half of 2025. This exceeded the RM13 billion surplus recorded during the same period in 2024. The current account surplus in the second quarter of 2025 decreased by RM0.3 billion due to higher imports of capital and intermediate goods. These imports are expected to contribute to spillover effects on Malaysia’s exports in the short and medium term. The ministry was responding to Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s query about government efforts to restore export competitiveness and investor confidence. – Bernama

THE largest U.S. business lobbying group filed a lawsuit on Thursday challenging President Donald Trump’s $100,000 fee on new H-1B visas for highly skilled foreign workers. The lawsuit by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which says it represents 300,000 businesses, is the group’s first against the Trump administration since the Republican president took office for a second term in January. The Chamber says in the lawsuit that Trump’s September proclamation imposing the fee on new H-1B visa applications was beyond his powers and would disrupt the complex visa system created by Congress. HIGHER COSTS OR FEWER WORKERS The H-1B program allows U.S. employers to hire foreign workers in specialty fields, and technology companies in particular rely heavily on workers who receive H-1B visas. The program offers 65,000 visas annually, with another 20,000 visas for workers with advanced degrees, approved for three to six years. The fee would force businesses that rely on the H-1B program to choose between dramatically increasing their labor costs or hiring fewer highly-skilled workers, the Chamber said. “Many members of the U.S. Chamber are bracing for the need to scale back or entirely walk away from the H-1B program, to the detriment of their investors, customers, and their own existing employees,“ the group said in the lawsuit filed in Washington, D.C., federal court. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The H-1B fee is being challenged in at least one other lawsuit filed this month by unions, employers, and religious groups in a California federal court. WORKER REPLACEMENT OR SHORTAGE SOLUTION? Critics of H-1Bs and other work visa programs say they are often used to replace American workers with cheaper foreign labor. But business groups and major companies have said H-1Bs are a critical means of addressing a shortage of qualified American workers. Employers who sponsor H-1B workers currently typically pay between $2,000 and $5,000 in fees, depending on the size of the company and other factors. The Chamber, in its lawsuit, said most H-1B petitions cost less than $3,600. Trump’s order bars new H-1B recipients from entering the United States unless the employer sponsoring their visa has made an additional $100,000 payment. The fee will first apply to H-1B applicants selected in an annual lottery that takes place in March. Trump in his unprecedented order invoked his power under federal immigration law to restrict the entry of certain foreign nationals that would be detrimental to the interests of the United States. He said the “large-scale replacement of American workers” through the H-1B program threatens the country’s economic and national security. But the Chamber argued in its lawsuit that the $100,000 payment does not amount to an entry on restriction because it is paid by businesses and not visa recipients. - Reuters
