Biden-Harris Administration Continues to Waste Money on Green Agenda

September 5, 2024

Today, the Biden-Harris administration is celebrating their spending an additional $7.3 billion on the green agenda. Calling it the “largest investment in rural electrification since the New Deal,” the announcement is similar to previous administration commitments for electric vehicle charging stations and electric school buses. Both programs are now raising serious questions about financial mismanagement.

In 2021, the Biden-Harris Administration spent $5 billion on the promise to build electric vehicle charging stations. So far, only seven are finished, results even Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) calls “pathetic.”  Additionally, Vice President Harris led the program behind another $5 billion for electric school buses, of which only 60 have been delivered, causing 55 school districts nationwide to pull out of the program.

Power The Future Founder Daniel Turner told Fox News the timing for announcing the program “is not just coincidental.”

“Here we are 61 days before the election, and just now they happen to announce seven and a half billion dollars for a very important swing state,” Turner told Fox News Digital. “I am sick and tired of hearing that these investments are going to lower costs because utility bills are up 30% since the Biden administration took over, and all we’ve done is continue to, quote, unquote, invest in wind and solar, and prices have not come down, and evidence of that is around the world…You don’t need to spend any money at all. That’s the funny thing is that the energy industry hasn’t needed government money for it to operate. It needs government cooperation.”
