President Biden defended the Inflation Reduction Act as the largest environmental plan in history, totaling $368 billion. He claimed that "wind technology" is now cheaper than fossil fuels due to government subsidies. The legislation has caused friction with G7 partners and the EU, specifically regarding subsidies that favor American-made green energy products.
