"Green Groups Plot Counterattack For GOP ‘Energy Week’"

"Advocates are incensed by legislation attempting to repeal a fee on methane emissions."

"As House Republicans gear up for a four-day sprint of hearings and floor debate devoted to undermining President Joe Biden’s environmental agenda, environmental groups are preparing to fight back.

Leading green advocacy organizations are sending letters to lawmakers to push back against “energy week” and reinforcing talking points they’ll use in statements and social media posts as a counternarrative to the GOP’s.

“House Republicans are wasting their energy trying to undo the big investments and even bigger ideas fueling the U.S. clean energy boom,” said Joanna Slaney, associate vice president for government affairs at the Environmental Defense Fund, in a statement to E&E News."
