House GOP’s “Energy Week”  Demonstrates Fealty to Polluters  

WASHINGTON (March 20, 2024) – In a coordinated effort, House Republicans this week are considering a raft of legislative measures aimed at undermining the Biden administration’s environmental agenda, particularly as it relates to climate and clean energy. 

Kevin S. Curtis, executive director of the NRDC Action Fund, issued the following statement in response: 

“In a show of abject fealty to fossil fuel lobbyists and other polluter special interests, House Republicans this week are proposing numerous rollbacks and giveaways that would undermine America’s recent progress on clean energy and weaken environmental safeguards. If they win power in Washington after November’s election, this is exactly what they would do because it is exactly who they are.”
