🧵Repealing President Biden’s signature climate law faces resistance: the GOP.
.@WSJ: “Donald Trump’s campaign-trail vow to end President Biden’s signature climate law is running into a cold reality: Too many Republican lawmakers want to keep it.”
“There are too many things in there that are too important to too many constituencies” to throw out the law, said Sen. Kevin Cramer (R., N.D.).
“In August, 18 Republican House members sent a letter to Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.), asking him to stick with incentives for clean-energy projects in the IRA. Most of those House members were re-elected. Johnson has indicated he isn’t planning to repeal the law.”
“Rep. Buddy Carter (R., Ga.), who signed the letter, said that while he thought the IRA was a bad idea, he doesn’t support full repeal.”
