Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez pressed senior Department of Energy officials during a House hearing over the cancellation of billions of dollars in clean energy projects, warning that policy changes have led to widespread job losses across the U.S.
Citing shuttered battery manufacturing facilities and withdrawn investments in states including Georgia, Arizona, and Kentucky, AOC questioned whether the department assessed the impact on American workers before reversing tax credits and project approvals. Officials defended their review process, as lawmakers debated the administration’s energy strategy and its economic consequences.
