** NEW: PPI Leads Coalition Letter Urging Housing Leadership to Oppose H.R.3460, the State Antitrust Enforcement Venue Act
------------------------------------------------------------
[link removed]
This week, the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) led a coalition letter to House Congressional Leadership urging their opposition to H.R.3460, The State Antitrust Enforcement Venue Act.
As explained in the letter, the bill would reduce the efficiency in the American judicial system — which is already backlogged — and disregards a clear opportunity for centralization that would conserve time and taxpayer dollars. The letter also lists additional concerns related to politically motivated judicial consequences from state attorneys generals where a company may be politically unpopular in a state or region.

** ICYMI: America's Clean Energy Transition Requires Permitting Reform: Policy Recommendations for Success
------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------
The Biden Administration and the Democratic-controlled Congress have earned plaudits for enacting unprecedented funding for clean energy incentives and climate protection. These include provisions in the bipartisan infrastructure law (IIJA), the U.S. competitiveness legislation (CHIPS), sections of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and other legislation, totaling approximately $514 billion in new spending on clean energy and climate, not including other related infrastructure funding. Taken together, these new laws represent the greatest investment in new U.S. energy infrastructure in nearly a century.
And yet, because of regulatory roadblocks and nuisance litigation, it is unclear that this new funding will deliver on its two policy goals:
1) Rapid, low-cost build out of a powerhouse, world-leading U.S. clean energy sector.
2) Large reductions in domestic greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) necessary to put the U.S. in a vanguard position to force emissions reductions by other key emitting nations globally.
