Back to the EPA money The two grant programs that Zeldin targeted are the $14 billion National Clean Investment Fund, or green bank, and the $6 billion Clean Communities Investment Accelerator program, which aims to build green lending capacity at institutions that serve low-income communities.

Zeldin noted he will refer the matter to the EPA Inspector General’s Office, as well as work with the Department of Justice.
