Ending Market Distorting Subsidies for Unreliable, Foreign‑Controlled Energy Sources

President Donald Trump issued an order to eliminate subsidies for wind and solar energy, which he describes as expensive and unreliable. The order aims to stop taxpayer support for these "green" energy sources, which are seen as contributing to market distortions and national security risks due to reliance on foreign-controlled supply chains. It directs the Department of the Treasury to enforce the termination of tax credits for wind and solar facilities and to implement restrictions on foreign entities. Additionally, the Department of the Interior is tasked with reviewing and revising any policies that favor wind and solar over other energy sources. The order emphasizes the need for energy dominance and fiscal health.
