Energy Department Axes Unobligated Funds, Citing Commitment to 'More Responsible Stewardship' of American Dollars
In a move aimed at fulfilling President Trump’s campaign promise to rein in what he calls “reckless spending,” the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced today it will return over $13 billion in unobligated funds to the U.S. Treasury.
According to the DOE, the money, originally earmarked for the previous administration’s “Green New Scam” agenda, will now be used to support the Working Families Tax Cut, a new law signed by President Trump earlier this year.
"The American people elected President Trump largely because of the last administration’s reckless spending on climate policies that fed inflation and failed to provide any real benefit to the American people,” said U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright. “By returning these funds to the American taxpayer, the Trump administration is affirming its commitment to advancing more affordable, reliable and secure American energy and being more responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars."
