Energy costs are too high, clean energy buildout is too slow, and our existing infrastructure is too outdated. The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act is a real opportunity to change the status quo. We want to recognize Senators @SenWhitehouse, @SenatorHeinrich, @SenCapito, @SenMikeLee and their staff for the tireless work it took to get here! 🔗 dream.org/news-articles/amer…

.@SenatorHeinrich is right:
Whether you’re liberal or conservative, you’ll like what our bipartisan permitting-reform bill will do for America.
If we want cheaper energy, we need permitting reform.
If we want to force data centers to pay their fair share and then some, we need permitting reform.
If we want to build out clean energy and the jobs that come with it, we need permitting reform.
And all of that reform is in our Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act.
Let’s get this done.

I couldn’t agree more! This bill will help projects of all types—including from different energy sources—be permitted and built. That means more American jobs and lower costs for consumers.

How fossil fuel pollution drives up your grocery prices right now:
zerocarbon-analytics.org/nat…
ALT Screenshot of text: Extreme climate events are raising agricultural risk, disrupting the global food system, increasing the chance of multiple breadbasket failure and pushing up food prices around the world. Studies show that historically unprecedented heat, drought, rain and cold are causing food price spikes across all continents. As well as impacting staple grains, climate disruptions are driving up the prices of perishable, nutrient-dense foods, threatening dietary quality and nutrition. Far beyond temporary market shocks, the compounding financial pressure of ‘climateflation’ will continue to inflate baseline prices until full decarbonisation and structural adaptation are achieved.

BAAJA is our best bet to lower people’s electricity costs and make sure data centers pay their fair share AND more.

We’re grateful to @SenWhitehouse @SenatorHeinrich, @SenCapito, @SenMikeLee and their staff for their commitment to this issue and for doing the hard work of bridging differences to reach an agreement.

1/The permitting bill is out and it’s awesome. HUGE congrats to @SenWhitehouse and @MartinHeinrich. This took years (now we can all see why!) against the backdrop of an administration actively hostile to a lot of clean energy the whole time. 🧵
📣 We've been asking, and Congress has answered! A bipartisan group of Senators just announced a MAJOR permitting reform package.
Federal permitting reform is vital to get clean energy built and connected to the grid faster.
