Congressional Democrats are backpedaling on climate change and pivoting to an energy “affordability” message after years of promoting expensive climate policy, according to The Washington Post.
Though Democratic officials have long pushed expensive green energy projects in the name of combating climate change, they are now embracing affordability and reliability messaging, according to The Washington Post’s new analysis. In recent years, some Congressional Democrats supported the electric vehicle (EV) mandate, the Green New Deal and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) under former President Joe Biden.
“Americans are suffering from climate hoax fatigue. The weather is the same and the false alarm has only caused energy prices and inflation to soar. The problem is so acute, Democrat politicians and fake news media are increasingly afraid to even mention climate anymore,” Steve Milloy, senior fellow at the Energy & Environment Legal Institute, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The only bloc still pushing climate is the coalition of corrupt businesses and politicians that stand to benefit from the remaining $500 billion of Green New Scam yet to be spent.”
