Stand up for true energy independence and federal investments in Wisconsin’s environment.
Stand up for true energy independence and federal investments in Wisconsin’s environment.
President Trump signed a bill into law on the Fourth of July that will mean more pollution, higher energy costs, more extraction on public lands, and lost jobs here in Wisconsin. The so-called ‘Big, Beautiful, Bill’ is a gift to big oil at the expense of Wisconsin families and our environment.
Rather than prioritize the health and wellbeing of average Americans, the administration is choosing to align itself with the polluters who damage our natural resources each and every day. This new law’s impact will be felt for years to come.
While the status of some programs made possible by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) is uncertain, the benefits they’ve already brought to Wisconsin communities are clear as day.

Millions of Wisconsinites are eligible for cash back and tax credits on home energy improvements, new appliances, insulation, home solar, electric cars and trucks, and more thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
The IRA is the largest investment to fight climate change in U.S. history, helping families and businesses cut energy use and create a clean energy future. The IRA is projected to slash greenhouse gas emissions by nearly a billion metric tons by 2030.
Communities across the state are cleaning up pollution, replacing lead pipes, protecting lakes and rivers, and rolling out electric buses, thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the largest long-term investment in our infrastructure and economy in U.S. history.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) has already delivered $5.6 billion in funding to Wisconsin.
Two major IRA programs will help Wisconsinites pay for energy-saving upgrades, cost-saving home upgrades.
