We did it!
Moments ago, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 into law, effectively making the largest investment in climate action in U.S. history that will result in one billion metric tons of annual emissions reductions by 2030.
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is a game changer and I speak for the Fresh Energy team when I say we're excited about what this bill will mean for all American households as well as our country's decarbonization goals.

Thank members of the Minnesota delegation who voted in favor of the IRA! Fresh Energy applauds Minnesota Senators Tina Smith and Amy Klobuchar who both played crucial roles in finding consensus in their party and getting the IRA over the finish line in the Senate. We are also celebrating Minnesota Representatives Angie Craig, Betty McCollum, Dean Phillips, and Ilhan Omar, who voted in favor of the bill in the House. Join me in sending them a quick note of thanks.
Onward!
