The House of Representatives has just passed H.R. 1023, known as the Cutting Green Corruption and Taxes Act, aimed at repealing the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) $27 billion green bank and its proposed natural gas tax. Proponents of the bill argue that it will lower energy costs, unleash American energy, reduce the budget deficit, and protect against government corruption by eliminating what they describe as a $27B slush fund for the Biden administration's rush-to-green agenda. Critics, however, denounce the bill as a giveaway to corporate polluters, aimed at dismantling key Inflation Reduction Act programs that aim to drive down pollution and lower energy bills. The bill's passage has sparked a significant debate over environmental policy and fiscal responsibility.
