They Justified Hamas Terrorism. Now Biden Is Letting Them Dole Out Taxpayer Dollars.
22nd December 2023
In the aftermath of Hamas’s Oct. 7 terror attack against Israel, left-wing nonprofit Climate Justice Alliance expressed “unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle” and blamed the attack on Israeli “settler-colonialism.” Now, the Biden administration is entrusting the group to distribute $50 million in taxpayer funds.
President Joe Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency announced the move in a Wednesday press release, which named Climate Justice Alliance as one of several “national grantmakers” tasked with doling out $50 million to local organizations in the name of “environmental justice.” In order to receive the taxpayer funds, those organizations will primarily work with the alliance, not the Biden administration. As a “grantmaker,” the left-wing nonprofit is tasked with awarding “subgrants”—which range from $150,000 to $350,000 each—and implementing “tracking and reporting systems.”
The decision raises questions as to how Biden’s EPA landed on Climate Justice Alliance for the program, given that the group has publicly condemned the administration over its support for the Jewish state. Climate Justice Alliance, a network of nearly 90 left-wing environmental groups from across the country, issued an Oct. 20 statement accusing Biden of using “US taxpayer dollars … to support a policy of genocide.”
