  • If Judge Janet Protasiewicz, who currently sits on a lower court and is heavily backed by the Democratic Party, is elected to the 10-year term, the court will have its first liberal majority in recent memory.

  • The newly formed Iaw includes $369 billion in investment for renewable energy and electric vehicle tax cuts, domestic battery and solar panel manufacture, and pollution mitigation.

  • Even with these sacrifices, a climate agreement that saves tens of billions of dollars for clean energy and pollution reduction was unthinkable just a few weeks ago.

  • To help expand sustainable electricity on the grid, the Inflation Reduction Act extends expired subsidies for solar and wind power by ten years.
