Vance calls for clean energy investment while Harris highlights past achievements

During a recent vice presidential debate, Senator JD Vance called for increased domestic investment in clean energy. He criticized current policies, claiming they lead to more energy production overseas, particularly in China. In contrast, the Biden-Harris administration has already made significant strides in clean energy. The Inflation Reduction Act, signed in 2022, allocated over $391 billion for clean energy, marking the largest investment in U.S. history. Vance's remarks come as some Republicans, including Donald Trump, express a desire to reduce such investments, despite their benefits for local employment. Harris played a crucial role in passing the Inflation Reduction Act with her tie-breaking vote in the Senate.
