The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Tuesday announced the allocation of nearly $3 billion to fund 55 zero-emission projects at ports across the country.

These projects, supported by the Clean Ports Program, aim to tackle climate change, reduce air pollution, promote high-quality union jobs, and advance environmental justice in communities near port facilities.

Looks like paying off blue city rulers in key election states, huh?

Port of Oakland: Secured $322 million

Maryland Port Administration (MPA): Selected for over $145 million

Philadelphia Regional Port Authority (PhilaPort): Receiving $77.6 million
