A leaked confidential 66-page document from a top environmentalist association obtained exclusively by Breitbart News reveals a plot by supporters of Democrat President Joe Biden’s signature legislative accomplishment to begin a pressure campaign against Republicans to push them to protect green energy subsidies Biden secured for them.
ACP has not replied to a comment request from Breitbart News about the 66-page confidential document leak.earlier this week that Trump and conservatives have the green energy parts of the IRA in the crosshairs should they return to power next year.
Specific action items the ACP document calls for in its quest to protect Biden’s energy agenda include blocking any vote from being scheduled in the U.S. Senate in 2025 to repeal or amend the IRA. Secondly, the association calls for building “visible support for clean energy projects and IRA incentives among a targeted group of Republican Members of Congress” through what it describes as “an integrated advocacy and communications effort.
“As we start this year, 2024 election cycle outcomes are a major and material uncertainty lingering on the horizon,” the ACP document states. “While there are signs that wholesale repeal of the IRA would be unlikely following a Republican wave election, we are not ignoring this risk and are taking steps to ensure the industry is in the best possible position to avoid the more likely threat of material changes to the IRA in a Republican-controlled Congress and White House in 2025.
The document also adds what it says is a “Special Note on Texas” and explains that the organization and its affiliated groups intend to spend more than $4 million over the next two years just in the Lone Star State pushing leftist green energy projects. The document even singles out Sen. John Cornyn , a GOP senator many think may be in consideration to become the next Senate GOP leader when the day comes for current Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell to finally step aside.
