Biden Looks To Turbocharge EPA Office Responsible For Aggressive Green Regulations
President Joe Biden’s latest budget request calls for a significant cash infusion for an office that has promulgated some of the administration’s most aggressive green regulations.
Biden’s fiscal year 2025 budget requests a total of $1.5 billion for the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Office of Air and Radiation (OAR), a figure that marks a $690 million increase in OAR funding since 2021. [emphasis, links added]
The OAR has been the source for three of the administration’s most aggressive proposed environmental regulations with significant implications for American motorists, industry, and power generation.
“It is very clear that it’s full steam ahead with the climate agenda at EPA, which is aiming to reshape every industry in the U.S. under Team Biden,” Mandy Gunasekara, a former EPA chief of staff during the Trump administration, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
“This is an insane amount of money. It shows that this administration prioritizes investing in the bureaucracy rather than investing in American businesses,” she continued, adding that OAR is “essentially the tip of the spear when it comes to EPA regulatory action, especially in a Democrat administration.”

Biden Seeks To Pour Billions In Taxpayer Dollars Into Global Climate Programs
President Joe Biden’s newest budget request calls for billions of taxpayer dollars to fund international climate programs.
The budget request furthers Biden’s goal to allocate a total of $11 billion in taxpayer funds to support international climate initiatives, including a $500 million payment in 2025 to the United Nations’ Green Climate Fund.
The Biden administration has made a major effort to reassert the U.S. as a leader in international climate diplomacy, even while countries like India and China are expanding their use of coal to produce power.
The budget request calls for $3 billion in funding for the President’s Emergency Plan for Adaptation and Resilience (PREPARE) program, which is a “whole-of-government effort to help more than half a billion people in developing countries adapt to and manage the impacts of climate change,” according to the White House.
The $500 million payment to the Green Climate Fund is a part of the PREPARE funding, and the budget also requests $100 million for the Amazon Fund to prevent deforestation.

Biden Wants Billions To Boost Green Jobs Training Program
President Joe Biden wants $8 billion in taxpayer funds to support his green jobs training program for Americans.
Biden requested the funds for the American Climate Corps (ACC), a green jobs training program Biden established via executive action in 2023, in his budget request for fiscal year 2025.
The government would provide the $8 billion over the course of the next decade to hire 50,000 people into the program each year by 2031, according to the budget request.
During Thursday’s State of the Union address, Biden stated that he intends to triple the number of participants in the ACC by the end of the decade.
The idea of the program is to prepare Americans — particularly young people — to work in climate-related fields, including federal civil service jobs.

I am amazed at the resilience of America. The President and the bloating bureaucracy have been trying to wreck the place, and yet it’s still standing. If elected, the Republicans should kill the EPA and replace it with something focused on the necessities.
Biden the Blunder Democrat and Globalists just like Obama and Clinton were and hopefully November we’ll seen Biden voted back into the Basement
