Republicans Divided Over Future of Biden's Climate Law

As Republicans gain control, internal debate emerges on preserving key clean energy investments from Biden's climate legislation.

  • President-elect Trump aims to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act, threatening $435 billion in planned clean energy projects.
  • A significant portion of these projects are located in Republican districts, creating economic stakes for GOP lawmakers.
  • Some Republicans, including Rep. Buddy Carter, advocate for selective cuts rather than a full repeal to protect district investments.
  • The Inflation Reduction Act has driven major investments in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and manufacturing jobs.
  • Key provisions, like electric vehicle tax credits, face potential cuts, sparking lobbying efforts to preserve them.
