WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Bob Good (VA-05) is fighting back against President Biden’s radical environmental agenda by introducing his No American Climate Corps Act which would defund the proposed 20,000-person climatecorps.
“Americans are struggling to make ends meet because of Bidenomics. Instead of recognizing that family budgets are already stretched thin by sky-high energy prices, President Biden is focused on deploying a climate army that will increase regulatory burdens on business owners and drive inflation across the economy even higher. My bill will fight Biden’s climate extremism and continue our work towards the goal of American energy independence,” said Congressman Good.

Background: The creation of the “American Climate Corps” was announced on September 20 as one component of the Biden Administration’s Justice40 initiative. - The Climate Corps program would consist of 20,000 workers tasked with implementing Biden’s radical ‘environmental justice’ and green energy systems.
- In this new attempt to mimic FDR’s New Deal programs, President Biden has announced he will borrow and spend $30 billion for his climate change army.
- President Biden and Democrats’ continued climate change-fueled war on American energy independence will cost over $500 billion in climate spending with the passage of bills like the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the Inflation Acceleration Act.
- These so-called ‘investments’ are inflecting hyper-inflation on the American people, increasing consumer costs, and undermining American energy independence.
