Trump’s Energy Crisis

Household electric bills are up 10 percent nationally since Trump took office, and are poised to spike even further. In July 2025, the Trump administration and congressional Republicans passed the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” or the Republican Rate Hike. The bill is already raising utility costs and destroying jobs by removing cheaper, cleaner energy sources from the grid, while funding new tax breaks for the oil and gas industries.

Trump and Republicans are creating a self-inflicted energy crisis, sending utility costs through the roof, closing down factories, and making us more dependent on foreign oil, all while dramatically increasing the pollution of our air and water.
