Ohio’s Energy Choice: Trump’s Energy Dominance Agenda or Failed California Policies

Ohio is now seeing a new industrial revolution take place. After more than two decades of relatively flat demand growth for electricity, the burgeoning artificial intelligence (AI) and data center sector — as well as renewed investment in the manufacturing base — are expected to supercharge the need for additional resources. Ohio policymakers owe it to their constituents to ensure reliability and affordability, and that includes adapting to the rapidly shifting levels of demand for electricity. Unfortunately, Ohio has in recent years seen scandals related to abuse of taxpayer dollars and opacity around ESPs that have not benefitted consumers. It…

Congress Must Act: Repeal Biden’s Natural Gas Tax

Thanks to Joe Biden’s Natural Gas Tax, winter’s frigid temperatures will become spring’s sticker shock. Congress must act now to repeal the Natural Gas Tax before millions face unaffordable heating bills. Congress needs to fix Joe Biden’s failure because every day delayed means hardworking American families will pay more dollars just to stay warm. As President Trump blazes a path of progress, it’s time for congressional leaders to match the pace with their new president. Atop their to-do list should be zeroing out the “Waste Emissions Charge” (WEC) buried deep in the bowels of the IRA. Natural Gas Tax: The…

Green Fail: How Environmental Policies are Practically Implemented, Along With Their Impacts on People’s Everyday Lives

Like it or not, environmental policy is now impacting every aspect of federal policymaking—and, seemingly, every minute aspect of our lives. This has implications for the cost of goods and services for consumers, employment, American economic self-sufficiency and the safeguarding of supply chains, permitting of critical infrastructure, and even national security. Political candidates often talk about their plans for the future in the environmental and climate policy arenas, but rarely are past federal actions meaningfully scrutinized. Green Fail is an informal series of articles intended to provide examples of how these policies are practically implemented, along with their impacts on…

Energy Is On The Ballot

The 2024 Election represents a choice between unleashing American energy and prosperity, or the continuation of an eco-left agenda that has driven up prices, destabilized our national security, and enriched the elite at the expense of the average, hardworking American. In 2024, Energy Is On The Ballot. A Primer War and Weakness A New Green Tax The Green New Deal

PTF Poll: President Biden’s Support Fading in New Mexico

According to our new poll, after winning New Mexico by 10 points in 2020, President Joe Biden is now 16 points underwater. Conducted by Public Opinion Strategies, the poll is composed of a survey of 500 registered/likely voters in New Mexico. Support for Biden’s approval stands at a dismal 41-57, including a 63 percent disapproval among Hispanic voters.  New Mexico has the highest percentage of Hispanic voters in the country.  As the nation’s second-largest oil producer, New Mexicans overwhelmingly (55 percent) believe oil and natural gas are the most important industries to the state. At the same time, 59 percent…

EPA’s Clean Power Plan 2.0: A Green Disaster for America

President Biden’s climate change agenda is a travesty. Unfortunately, there’s more to come. In May, Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) effectively proposed to close power plants that keep electricity flowing affordably and reliably. As a key part of Biden’s promise of a “zero-carbon” power grid by 2035, EPA’s plan will undermine the stability of the grid, raise electricity prices for consumers, and compromise America’s energy security. Biden’s EPA is following the Obama Administration’s brazen attempt to control the nation’s electric grid using an obscure and rarely invoked authority under the Clean Air Act. The plan is to require emissions controls…

Where Green Meets Red: How the Environmental Agenda is Making America Dependent on China

The Biden Administration’s push to electrify nearly every facet of everyday life – power plants, cars, the heating and cooling systems in homes and buildings – is dangerously increasing America’s dependence on China and jeopardizing our nation’s security. The following report sheds further light on Biden’s green agenda leaving our nation vulnerable to China’s growing dominance. Specific areas of examination include: The bipartisan “resolution of disapproval” passed by the Democratic Senate in May 2023 targeting Biden’s decision to allow tariff waivers for solar modules and cells from Cambodia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand that gave China a free pass; The Consumer…
