ACORE Statement on Senate Reconciliation Draft
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) issued the following statement from ACORE President and CEO Ray Long after the Senate Finance Committee released draft legislative text as part of the Congressional budget reconciliation process:
“The Senate Finance Committee proposal is a premature rollback of solar and wind tax credits. This draft is a major setback to American energy dominance, and risks jeopardizing billions of private investments that are currently benefiting communities throughout the country. This represents a retreat from the certainty and scope the market needs to make the energy investments needed to meet escalating electricity demand. Without changes, this bill will increase energy prices for consumers, threaten thousands of good-paying jobs, and all but guarantees we forfeit the AI race to China. Congress has a narrow window to get this right. We urge lawmakers finalize a bill that utilizes all energy technologies, and honors existing pro-growth policies essential for strengthening American competitiveness.”

Is our civilization’s dependence on oil “not going to change?”
Obviously, Big Oil wants to keep the status quo in place, regardless of the environmental damage it’s doing to every living creature on this planet. And the Trump administration is doing everything in its power to make sure this assault against all life forms endures in perpetuity.
But this won’t work. It may be true that the United States is rapidly transforming itself into a dictatorship like Russia, China, North Korea, and the other 50+ sovereign nations on this planet. But the rest of the developed world is working hard to decarbonize its energy and transportation sectors so as to prevent environmental collapse.
Hillsdale “College” writes:Do you suppose, for a minute, that I want some ultra-right-wing “college” to tell me how I should regard the Constitution? What a sick joke.
I don’t want to hear from the John Birch Society, nor the Heartland Institute, nor the KKK, to lecture me on the meaning of the Constitution.
White Nationalists Want to Tell You What the Constitution Means
Jim Meskimen, the fellow quoted at left, is among the brightest and most talented people I’ve ever met, but I take issue with what he says here.
When one’s native country has become beset by a criminal sociopath in the position of leadership, responsible, high-integrity people become politically active, and do anything in their power to remove this cancer before it destroys us.
