Texas
The Republican Rate Hike has taken a “sledgehammer” to Texas’ clean energy production, saddling Texans with higher energy costs, a weaker electric grid, and job losses. Since Trump’s election, his attacks on clean energy have led to the cancellation or delay of 3,993 jobs and $5.1 billion of investment in Texas. And every single Texas Republican in Congress voted for Trump’s bill to create a self-inflicted energy crisis, sending utility costs through the roof, and closing down factories, all to give a massive tax break to oil and gas billionaires.
