Our public land system is the envy of the world. These lands are owned collectively by all Americans. They’re a backyard for families–rich or poor–to camp, hike, hunt, and fish. And we are in danger of losing them for good.

Congress appropriated $1B to strengthen Puerto Rico's energy grid and provide electricity to medically vulnerable Puerto Ricans. The Trump administration has no authority to sideline that. Senator Cortez Masto: This was appropriated by Congress, this goes back to the rule of law.

Budgets are a reflection of our values, and what we are seeing from the President’s budget is a total disregard for science.

The Department of Energy wants to eliminate over 20 efficiency standards for products that save you money. Energy efficiency standards that DOE stewards provide nearly $1 trillion in consumer savings over 30 years and save the average family at least $100/year on utility bills.

Wind is one of the fastest-growing and cheapest renewable energy sources, and this is a project already under construction. Billions of dollars spent. It’s about to be canceled because of a Trump administration stop-work order.

Senator King: Ralph Waldo Emerson said, what you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say. I have never been at a hearing where what's being done is at such variance with this, with what is being said.

Senator Cortez Masto: Will you promise me that you will not make grant funding decisions based on red states or blue states?

Public lands are the inheritance we will leave to our children and grandchildren. Selling them off to build vacation homes or to pay for a tax cut for billionaires will forever impoverish those who come after us. Let’s keep public lands in public hands. nytimes.com/2025/05/16/opi…

Here's what I told Secretary Doug Burgum: Our public lands are NOT for sale. And pushing out park rangers or EMTs? He even fired the only plumber at Mount Rainier National Park! You can't do the job without people. NO WAY to Trump's budget cuts.

Our public lands belong to the American people and the American people do not want to see them sold off to the highest bidder.

The Energy Star program has been a huge success. âś… Saved families and businesses $500 billion+ in energy costs. âś… Reduced electricity demand by 5 trillion kilowatt-hours. âś… Cut greenhouse-gas emissions by 4 billion metric tons. So of course, Trump wants to end it.

If you live in Arizona, Maryland, North Carolina, Tennessee, or Wyoming, this is for you: Republicans’ budget plan will make your electricity costs go up by more than $200 next year. By slashing clean energy incentives, Republicans “win,” but YOU lose.

We’re expecting nationwide electric demand to increase by more than 15% by 2029. So why do Republicans want to raise your electricity prices by cutting investments in renewable energy, the cheapest, fastest-growing energy sources on the grid?
