Not a single Republican in either the House or Senate supported this bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IRA was a reconciliation bill that helped the political left advance its Green New Deal. Now, because Republicans have control of both chambers of Congress, they can now use the reconciliation process and other means to dismantle the \u201cgreen\u201d subsidies contained in the IRA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The undersigned organizations strongly urge all legislators, regardless of party, to make it a priority to get rid of the IRA\u2019s Green New Deal provisions. Many conservative policymakers have made undoing the Green New Deal a priority. This is impossible without undoing the IRA \u201cgreen\u201d subsidies, which are the heart of the Green New Deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The spotlight will be on Republicans and more specifically on whether they can come through for the American people by getting rid of these IRA subsidies. If the subsidies are not repealed in reconciliation, this will be a devastating result. It will be characterized as a major failure and an ominous sign for the 119th Congress, as well as a failure to advance President Donald Trump\u2019s Unleashing American Energy agenda. Those characterizations would be fair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a critical moment that will require Republicans and other legislators to overcome far left efforts to maintain the IRA and the Biden administration\u2019s harmful anti-energy legacy. There have been recent reports of some Republicans wavering in their opposition to the IRA subsides. IRA boosters cynically predicted Republicans would change their tune on the IRA once money started flowing into their districts. It appears that may be happening. That is unacceptable and ignores the harm subsidies will cause to Americans, including those living in all congressional districts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IRA is filled with numerous subsidies that were designed to shift our country away from reliable electricity generation (coal and natural gas) to unreliable electricity sources (e.g. wind and solar). This comes at a time of concern about the reliability of the nation\u2019s electricity grid, in large part because of misguided corporate welfare policies that undermine reliable baseload generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are also IRA subsidies that work in conjunction with other policies, such as the Environmental Protection Agency\u2019s&nbsp;<em>de facto&nbsp;<\/em>electric vehicle mandate, to kill off gas-powered vehicles \u2013 undermining the freedom of Americans to choose their cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These examples capture just some of the problems with the IRA \u201cgreen\u201d subsidies. In general, the subsidies will drive up prices, diminish grid reliability, compromise mobility, and disproportionately impact the poor. Not to mention, the subsidies are expected to cost over $1 trillion, and this may be a low-ball estimate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is another excuse for maintaining IRA subsidies that was predicted after the law\u2019s passage. Some big businesses claim they made decisions relying on those subsidies. Any business that bet on the IRA subsidies continuing, especially given the wide opposition to the IRA, is a poorly led business. Congress needs to put the interests of the American people over the interests of wealthy special interests who are trying to keep their handouts flowing at the expense of taxpayers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All IRA \u201cgreen\u201d subsidies should be in the sights of policymakers. They work together as a central plan to achieve a radical and harmful shift in how our country produces and uses electricity, among other things. Given that they work together to achieve this Green New Deal, they should be eliminated together to restore freedom and ensure our country can reliably and affordably meet its energy needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our organizations believe that this is a pivotal moment for our country. Will we go down the path of the Green New Deal, as pushed by Biden and the far left, or will Republicans and common- sense legislators get our country back on course to meeting our energy needs now and in the future? This is what is at stake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, our organizations again urge you to eliminate the IRA\u2019s \u201cgreen\u201d subsidies. We are available to work with you to ensure that when Congress passes reconciliation legislation this year, these harmful subsidies are repealed. If there is such an outcome, then this would be a major victory for conservatives, and more importantly, for the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Craig Rucker<br>President<br>Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow<br>(CFACT)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daren Bakst<br>Director, Center for Energy and<br>Environment<br>Competitive Enterprise Institute<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">James L.
