Fox News: On Inflation Reduction Act anniversary, energy groups demand end to ‘Green New Deal-type policies’
More than 40 energy groups and think tanks are urging Congress to remove "Green New Deal-type policies" from President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act, saying they benefit China more than the U.S. Power the Future released a report criticizing Biden's green energy policies and warning that American tax dollars will go to Chinese companies. The letter to Congress argues that the IRA allows the government to control energy production and usage in the U.S., limiting consumer choice and increasing reliance on unreliable energy sources.
President Biden admitted that the Inflation Reduction Act is not primarily about reducing inflation but supporting economic growth. Sen. Joe Manchin, who previously claimed to have written the bill, now downplays his involvement but defends the law's goal of achieving energy security. Manchin criticizes the Biden administration for trying to implement the IRA as a radical climate agenda, rather than the law that was passed.
