I've canceled now $22 billion worth of grants. And to give you an idea of how that compares to the agency's budget, our operating budget is about $10 billion a year.

You say environmental justice, a great argument to be made in support of it is that there are communities that have been left behind and they need funding and support, attention in order to deal with it. It's long overdue. OK, a lot of us can agree with a definition like that. Here's the problem. In the name of environmental justice, they will get a dollar appropriated.
