The Environmental Protection Agency announced this morning it will
distribute $20 billion to eight groups through the Greenhouse Gas
Reduction Fund, a major climate initiative under the Inflation Reduction
Act that aims to spur clean energy in places long overlooked across the
country at a time when the U.S. is struggling to meet President Joe
Biden’s climate goals. POLITICO’s Zack Colman discusses the details of
the announcement and the fund’s overall goals with Jahi Wise, the acting
director of the initiative at EPA.
