Inside the House GOP’s plan to gut Democrats’ climate law
About this episode
House Republicans aim to repeal and phase out major energy portions of the Inflation Reduction Act, the Democrats’ climate law, as part of President Donald Trump’s megabill. POLITICO’s Josh Siegel and James Bikales break down what House Republicans are proposing, the potential impacts, reaction from the Senate and green groups, and the timeline for this legislation. Plus, the Trump administration said it intends to roll back first-ever limits set by the Biden administration on four toxic “forever chemicals” contaminating water supplies across the country.
