Once again: the fossil fuel industry wants energy prices to be high. The Republican Party is in the pocket of the fossil fuel industry. And thus, they are celebrating the passage of a big ugly bill that will cause your energy prices to go up. https://www.canarymedia.com/articles/clean-energy/big-beautiful-bill-state-costs
