California lawmakers are looking for ways to respond after President Donald Trump signed a new budget bill that removes key clean energy incentives. The bill eliminates tax credits that were meant to support large-scale solar and wind projects, home energy improvements, and electric vehicle purchases.
According to Politico, the situation has created a difficult choice for California officials who now must decide between maintaining strict environmental standards and keeping clean energy projects moving forward. With state budgets already tight, replacing these federal incentives seems unlikely.
