Protect the IRA
Saving jobs and building healthier communities for the American people
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) created the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) which promised $27 billion worth of job opportunities, clean energy investments, and environmental benefits for American communities across the country.
On February 12th, 2025, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that it would freeze the $27 billion and stop it from benefiting millions of hard working Americans with no evidence or reasoning to justify this decision.
All of those benefits–like lower energy bills and more clean energy jobs–that would help our communities are now at risk of being taken away permanently!
Join our efforts in key red states and districts across the country to fight for the clean and affordable future that Americans deserve.
The IRA could help create more than 1 million good-paying clean energy jobs. Slashing funding would eliminate these job opportunities for Americans and leave no alternative pathway for economic empowerment.
Climate investments are already flowing to communities for clean energy projects that can save American households and small businesses thousands of dollars on utility bills per year. Restricting these funds puts the economic well-being of American families at risk.
Rural and low-income communities are some of the hardest hit by pollution and harsh weather. Investments from the IRA and GGRF will improve quality of life by building more resilient communities, creating more comfortable homes, and ensuring cleaner air and water.
