Trump Administration Slashes Staffing for Biden's Clean Energy Initiative

The Wall Street Journal

The federal clean-energy program, which received hundreds of billions of dollars in funding under the Biden administration, has undergone significant staff cuts under President Trump's leadership. This move is part of a broader effort to reshape the country's energy policy, with a focus on fossil fuels and reduced emphasis on renewable energy sources like solar and wind power. As a result, the program has lost approximately one-fourth of its staff, sparking concerns about the future of clean energy development and sustainability initiatives in the US. The staffing cuts may impact the program's ability to promote energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.
