The Spin
Republican narrative
The green energy gravy train ends now. For too long, taxpayers have been forced to fund unreliable energy sources that compromise grid stability and national security. America has become too dependent on foreign supply chains controlled by adversaries, including China. Ending these market-distorting handouts is essential.
Democratic narrative
Renewable energy investments drive economic growth while reducing carbon emissions and energy costs. Solar added more new capacity in 2024 than any other technology, meeting growing electricity demand from data centers and major corporations. Eliminating these incentives sets America back in the global clean energy race.
