The Inflation Reduction Act is absurdly named Democrat legislation that passed the U.S. Senate in early August 2022 by a vote of only 51-50, without a single Republican supporting it and the Vice President Kamala Harris having to cast the tie-breaking vote.
The bill wastes $369 billion on so-called climate change and energy-limiting provisions that, according to liberal cheerleaders for this boondoggle, "will transform how Americans get their energy and shape the country’s climate and industrial policy for decades."[1]
Leftists point out that this is four times the size of the wasteful green energy incentives in Obama's American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
In addition to raising corporate taxes, this bill would supposedly more than triple green energy production, by allegedly adding 550 gigawatts of electricity from wind, solar and other renewable energy sources.[2]
