If you support American manufacturing and made-in-America energy, you have to support America’s clean energy investments. A majority of the more than 400,000 new clean energy jobs are in Republican districts, with a large number in rural areas and communities that have been left behind. Congress must protect the jobs and investments creating opportunity and hope for countless families. Pulling the rug out from under American companies, innovators, and working people would be, as one president put it, ‘American carnage.
