Donald Trump wasn’t kidding.

He told supporters on the campaign trail that he would halt offshore wind projects on “day one” of his second term. On Monday, the new president issued an executive order doing just that.

The order suspended new federal leases, permits, and other approvals for wind projects, and targeted the large offshore installations that the federal government has the most authority over. The move could throw a major wrench in New York’s climate agenda, since the state — like many of its East Coast peers — is counting on the projects to meet its climate targets.

When a devastating fire ripped through the Twin Parks apartment complex in the Bronx three years ago, leaving 17 dead and dozens injured and homeless, the Bronx Community Foundation sprang into action.

By the end of the day, the organization, which was founded in 2017 to support social services nonprofits in the Bronx, had started a fundraising drive for the fire’s victims. The foundation said it was “working with community members, partners and local elected officials to mobilize resources as quickly as possible.” Both Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul’s offices promoted the foundation’s effort, which raised hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Two years later, internal financial audits show, almost all of that money was still sitting in the bank.

When Governor Kathy Hochul’s office sent reporters an advance copy of her 2025 policy agenda before her State of the State address on Tuesday, it contained surprisingly few details on what was expected to be the centerpiece of her climate agenda: a carbon pricing program known as cap and invest. The brief, vague mention of the program implied that she was shelving it, in a major setback for climate action.

There was one concrete commitment left to hang onto. The governor said her agencies would release a portion of the rules to structure the program by the end of the year.

A few hours later, though, when the final version of the book was published online, that self-imposed deadline had disappeared. The document said only that regulators would “take steps forward” on the regulations “over the coming months.”
