Trump cuts Energy Star program that saved households $450 a year

The Energy Star program, which provides savings of up to $450 annually for homeowners, is at risk of being shut down by the Trump administration as part of broader organizational changes. This move could raise energy costs and jeopardize home-saving initiatives that have already reduced energy expenses over two decades, saving billions in total. Sources indicate the decision aligns with EPA's plans to streamline operations focused on clean air, water, and land.
