Description (excerpt):
State and local governments will receive financial and technical support from the Biden administration to help them achieve success under the Inflation Reduction Act, but they must also be prepared to stand up ambitious programs in their communities. The recently enacted Inflation Reduction Act will: Incentivize the deployment of American clean energy; Lower energy bills and costs for efficiency upgrades; Create good jobs through domestic manufacturing and clean procurement; Support climate-ready agriculture, forestation, and resilience; Advance clean air through clean transportation.
