House Republicans passed the massive spending bill that slashes solar, wind, and EV tax credits.

The bill quickly sunsets incentives that Congress approved in 2022 as part of the Inflation Reduction Act that was expected to cut US greenhouse gas emissions by roughly 40 percent from peak levels by 2030. On top of more pollution, wholesale electricity prices could also increase by 25 percent by 2030 as a result of the bill, according to one initial analysis

The bill now heads to President Donald Trump to sign into law.
