The Biden administration is whittling away American energy dominance with regulations and executive orders that favor Chinese-made electric batteries, wind turbines, and solar panels and discourage domestic oil and natural gas production. But because these actions aren’t laws, a future Republican administration could reverse them.
The Biden administration openly wants to stifle oil and gas production and encourage wind and solar power through Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy regulations, monument designations, and climate czars in multiple agencies. China, home to half of the largest wind turbine and solar panel manufacturers, makes 80% of the world’s electric batteries. Requiring renewable energy and electric vehicles makes America dependent on China.
