Description
If Republicans win a narrow majority in the House as expected, a select
group of GOP lawmakers will wield significant power as committee chairs
for the next two years. According to their own words, those House
Republicans plan to conduct a lot of oversight of Democrats’ energy and
climate spending, the Biden administration’s green policies, and the
Cabinet officials implementing them. POLITICO’s Kelsey Tamborrino breaks
down what House GOP committee chairs plan to do and the actual impact on
the administration. Plus, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s newest
regulator says the U.S. cannot ignore its nuclear waste problem as it
looks to build new plants to help solve the climate crisis.
Josh Siegel is an energy reporter for POLITICO.
Kelsey Tamborrino is a reporter covering clean energy.
Nirmal Mulaikal is a POLITICO audio host-producer.
Raghu Manavalan is a senior editor for POLITICO audio.
