Read our breakdown of all the $$$ this administration is costing us

Hi there,

Since returning to office, Donald Trump has been hell-bent on jacking up energy costs for American families. From freezing clean energy investments to imposing a national tariff tax on energy imports, his administration is making it more expensive to power homes, fuel cars, and keep the lights on.

And he’s only just getting started. Even as his executive action agenda wreaks havoc on energy markets, Trump and his Republican cronies are charging forward with a bill that could increase household energy costs by an additional $32 billion over the next decade.

What does all this mean for working people? Soaring energy bills, stalled clean energy projects, and higher household costs—all while fossil fuel executives and corporate polluters cash in.

To see for yourself, check out this timeline we recently put together of all the key actions Trump has taken since his first day in office and how they’re impacting everyday Americans’ wallets.

In our memo, you’ll see that Trump’s energy policies are hitting Americans where it hurts: their wallets. Instead of championing and investing in clean, affordable energy, Trump is actively making it harder and more expensive to power American homes, drive to work, and keep the lights on. His so-called “energy dominance” agenda is a gift to fossil fuel CEOs while the rest of us foot the bill. It’s a scam.

And Trump’s biggest energy price hike threat has yet to come to fruition. Right now, his Republican allies in Congress are assembling a spending bill that hinges on deep cuts to programs people rely on—all to fund a $4.5 trillion tax break for billionaires and big corporations. If passed, it could eviscerate critical energy investments and tax credits—costing American households billions in additional energy bills every year.

Families already struggling to keep up with Trump’s energy price hikes can’t afford Republicans’ extreme agenda. So if you haven’t contacted your representative yet about protecting these clean energy and climate programs, now’s the time. Remind them they are accountable to you—not billionaire polluters—and send them a message today.

In solidarity,
