TL;DR Summary

A renewables-backed Invest in Tomorrow Coalition PAC spent about $2 million to help Charlie Hatcher defeat Rep. Andy Ogles in Tennessee, using ads that highlighted voting records rather than energy issues. The move signals the solar industry’s growing willingness to wage targeted political battles to punish lawmakers who oppose renewables and to build a broader, more aggressive influence operation for future races.
