President Trump is keeping his promise to lower your electricity bill and he means business. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told Glenn Beck that Trump asks for daily updates on cutting energy costs for hardworking American families. This is what real leadership looks like when you put America First instead of wasting money on failed green energy schemes.
Trump declared a national energy emergency on his first day back in office and he used it to slash the red tape that Democrats love so much. The administration is fast tracking oil, gas, coal and nuclear projects that will actually work unlike those ugly windmills that barely produce power. While liberals cry about their climate agenda, Trump is focused on what matters most to real Americans.
The Trump team is stopping the ridiculous closure of coal plants that provide reliable cheap energy to millions of Americans. These plants have powered our nation for generations and create good paying jobs in communities that Democrats abandoned. Nuclear energy is also getting a huge boost because it produces massive amounts of clean power without depending on the weather like solar panels do.
Congress is finally waking up and considering cuts to the wasteful tax credits that subsidize wind and solar companies. These green energy handouts were part of the Democrats massive spending spree that drove up inflation and hurt working families. Republicans are realizing that throwing taxpayer money at unreliable energy sources was always a mistake.
The administration revoked over 3.5 million acres of federal waters that were set aside for offshore wind projects that would have destroyed our coastlines. Trump promised no more windmills and he is delivering on that promise in a big way. Americans want energy independence through our own oil, gas and coal resources not foreign made solar panels.
Polls show that Americans are getting tired of the green energy push especially when it comes to electric vehicles. Most people oppose phasing out gas powered cars and trucks by 2035 because they know these vehicles are not ready for prime time. Smart Americans understand that our gas engines work better and cost less than expensive electric cars that barely work in cold weather.
The Department of Energy is now promoting American coal production through federal support programs instead of trying to shut down our energy industry. FERC is cutting regulations that slow down natural gas infrastructure projects that will bring cheap energy to more Americans. This is how you build an economy that works for everyone not just coastal elites.
Trump understands that high energy costs hurt families the most and he is doing everything possible to bring relief. While Democrats pushed policies that made electricity more expensive Trump is unleashing American energy to make bills cheaper. This is what happens when you elect a president who actually cares about the people who work hard and pay their taxes.
