Big Oil-Backed Polluters Over People Act Presents Tough Choice for “Moderate” Republicans
This week, MAGA House Republicans introduced their Polluters Over People Act, an energy bill that would raise prices for families, stymie our clean energy job growth, and roll back vital protections related to drilling and methane. Backed by radical MAGA Republicans, this bill is a risky vote for so-called “moderate” Republicans who maintain precarious holds on districts won by President Biden in 2020. Punchbowl News reported this morning that doubts are building among House Republican leadership, who are “worried that Northeastern GOP moderates could vote against the package,” killing any chance the bill could pass the House.
