Frank Maisano, a senior principal in Bracewell’s Policy Resolution Group, addressed with E&E News how bipartisan support has bolstered clean-energy initiatives such as the infrastructure law, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the Energy Act of 2020.
Experts pointed to the growing support among congressional Republicans, who have seen federal dollars flow to factories that make electric vehicles, solar panels and batteries in their districts and states.
“This and infrastructure happened to be one of the areas where Republicans can find common ground,” Maisano said.
