The American Energy Alliance, on the other hand, celebrated the vote against these standards as a victory for consumers.

The Biden administration's attempt to set new emissions standards on electric vehicles was blocked by a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Friday. 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced a final rule in March under the Clean Air Act to set new emissions standards that would require up to two-thirds of new cars sold to be electric vehicles by 2032.

The new standards would affect "light-duty vehicle manufacturers, independent commercial importers, alternative fuel converters,...

Host Mike Mauceli, of the Rich Dad Channel, is joined by Tom Pyle, President of the American Energy Alliance, to explore the shifting energy policies of Vice President Kamala Harris and the broader implications for the U.S. energy landscape. As the upcoming election approaches, energy policy will play a pivotal role in determining the future of domestic oil and gas production, renewable energy, and national security.

A coalition of high-profile climate activist nonprofits, which have pushed fracking bans at the state and federal levels, are unleashing a colossal advertising campaign in support of Kamala Harris's presidential campaign.

Rep. John Curtis and his opponent in Utah’s open U.S. Senate race, outdoor activist Caroline Gleich, want you to know that even though they both want to protect the environment, they support very different pathways to get there.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ choice Tuesday of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate is spiking enthusiasm among climate-focused progressives — and fossil fuel supporters backing former President Donald Trump.

Walz, a 60-year-old former school teacher and football coach with military experience, has a long energy record that is under renewed scrutiny from both the right and left.

But the same Walz energy policies that are animating the left have Trump allies...

President Joe Biden campaigned for the 2020 election on a promise to end fossil fuels. During his time in the White House, Biden and the Democrats, according to the Institute for Energy Research, have taken more than 200 actions that made it more expensive and difficult to produce oil and gas in the U.S. 

“I think that she has the potential to be even more hostile to the oil and gas industry. At least as bad as the current administration, but I expect her to align herself more closely...

It’s been a huge week for former President Donald Trump’s allies in the energy and environment world.

Conservatives were already gleeful after Thursday’s presidential debate prompted heartburn among Democrats wondering whether President Joe Biden is fit for his reelection bid.
