The Trump administration has ceased its efforts to stop wind energy projects in the United States and has withdrawn its challenge to a court ruling that overturned President Donald Trump’s order to freeze federal permitting and leasing for wind projects. This decision follows a legal challenge from a coalition of attorneys general from 17 states and Washington, DC, led by New York Attorney General Letitia James. The US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit dismissed the appeal on June 10, 2026, after the Justice Department filed a motion for voluntary dismissal.
