Energy Secretary Chris Wright on Monday said the Energy Department slashed 47 regulations that put onerous strictures on consumer appliances, placed limits on building and energy production, and doled out taxpayer dollars to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) grants. [emphasis, links added]
“While it would normally take years for the Department of Energy to remove just a handful of regulations, the Trump Administration assembled a team working around the clock to reduce costs and deliver results for the American people in just over 110 days,” Wright said in a statement.
“Thanks to President Trump’s leadership, we are bringing back common sense, slashing regulations meant to appease Green New Deal fantasies, restrict consumer choice, and increase costs for the American people. Promises made, promises kept.”
