At least $19 billion in Environmental Protection Agency funding to thousands of state and local governments and nonprofits remained on hold as of Feb. 14 .

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has vowed to seek return of an additional $20 billion the agency invested last year in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund program.

Environmental advocates said EPA was unfairly smearing the program, which EPA worked with Treasury Department to design a standard financial agent arrangement.
