Green Gutting

No more green scams:

The Trump administration’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2026 seeks to eliminate over $15 billion in funding associated with Biden’s expensive and inane “Green New Deal” initiatives, specifically targeting “clean energy”, the “climate crisis”, and environmental programs. The White House said the energy budget proposal cancels more than $15 billion in carbon capture and renewable energy funding from the bipartisan infrastructure law that former President Joe Biden, a Democrat, signed in 2021. It also proposes to cancel $6 billion from that law for EV chargers. “The Biden Administration spent more than three years implementing these programs, but built only a small number of chargers because it prioritized over-regulating and ‘climate justice’ goals,” the White House said. “EV chargers should be built just like gas stations: with private sector resources disciplined by market forces.” The plan reorients Energy Department funding toward research and development of technologies that could produce an abundance of oil, gas, coal and critical minerals, nuclear reactors and advanced nuclear fuels, the White House said without further details. The budget is meant to lay out an administration’s policies, and what lawmakers ultimately adopt often differs from the White House request. It was not immediately clear how Congress would agree to cut funding approved in bipartisan law that is popular in many Republican districts. Congress would likely have to pass legislation such as rescissions or amendments. The plan would cut $80 million in Interior Department renewable energy programs including offshore wind energy projects. The Trump administration’s proposed budget for FY2026 eliminates over $15 billion in Green New Scam funds. Promises made, promises kept!https://t.co/fhAvW7WiD5 — U.S. Department of Energy (@ENERGY) May 6, 2025 As a reminder, Biden came into office promising the construction of 500,000 electric vehicle charging stations by 2030. With 5 years to go, only 7 have been built. I think it is pretty safe to cut this from the federal budget.
