A new report from the House Energy and Commerce Committee criticizes the Biden-Harris administration for allocating millions of dollars in 'environmental justice' grants to left-leaning activist groups.
The funding, part of the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, directed $3 billion to these grants, raising concerns about political motives. Critics argue that the funds are being used to support groups advocating for the end of fossil fuels, rather than addressing environmental issues in a non-partisan manner.
The report highlights the significant increase in the Environmental Protection Agency's budget, which quadrupled due to the legislation.
