Americansβ electricity bills are predicted to rise by as much as 18% over the next decade, thanks to cuts to clean energy production in Trumpβs big, ugly bill.
Red states are likely to see the biggest increases.
Trump put his Big Oil donors over his own voters.

The past decade has shown us that nothing is fixed in our current era, including progress. Celebrate the wins, dust off the losses, and stay in the arena.

House Republican support grows for keeping clean energy tax breaks
Lawmakers are expected to start the difficult task this week of determining which of the credits are on the chopping block to help pay for the GOP's budget bill.

Since August 2022, the auto sector has invested over $39 billion in EV projects, accounting for 65,000+ new jobs across the country.
