Debt limit deal and energy: Bipartisan agreement or climate gaslighting?
TL;DR
The debt limit deal passed by the House this week gives Republicans significant energy provisions they have been pushing for, such as limits on environmental reviews, while Democrats did not get their electric infrastructure buildout, a concession that could limit their leverage in future negotiations. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have been working for months on a deal to speed energy projects and other infrastructure projects, but some are skeptical that a bipartisan deal is achievable.
