Las Vegas, Nevada — Nonpartisan energy and climate policy group Energy Innovation released a state-by-state breakdown of how Project 2025 would harm middle-class Americans with increased energy costs of $240 for the average household and 1.7 million jobs lost across the country by 2030.
Climate Power Communications Director Alex Glass issued the following statement: “Big Oil wrote the blueprint for Trump’s day-one dictatorship, and this new research proves just how dangerous his plans are. Trump’s Project 2025 agenda will give Americans higher bills and pink slips while Big Oil gets $110 billion in tax breaks. Trump’s plan is to make working families pay up so that fossil fuel billionaires get a payout.”
Trump’s Project 2025 agenda will hurt working families in Nevada, where annual energy costs would increase by nearly $460 per household and where more than 4,800 jobs would be lost in 2035.
