Republican Giveaway to Corporate Polluters Raises Utility Bills and Energy Prices while Failing to Block Construction of Trump Arch

Today, House Republicans advanced the fiscal year 2027 Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies funding bill out of the full committee. Instead of lowering the cost of living and confronting the climate crisis, House Republicans are raising utility bills and energy prices. The legislation takes an aggressive anti-environment, pro-corporate polluter stance with cuts to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and policy provisions that endanger public health and fail to confront the climate crisis. The bill also guts resources for the arts and museums while failing to prevent the administration from misusing funds to build President Trump’s Garden of Heroes and Triumphal Arch.
